mattie g Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 I might sneak by with about .05" on the day. Sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattskiva Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Now lets see if it maintains through the Metro area. I suspect it will weaken suddenly around me lol. Warning text has 70mph winds in it. Very southern tip of the storm just hit here. Some strong gusts, but nothing really unusual. The clouds to my north (towards Ashburn) look wild, though.

das Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Have to assume a human has to approve before a warning goes out. Otherwise too much liability for false warning. I'm still not seeing rotation that would warrant a warning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs.J Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 My husband is in Rockville right along 270 just off of Shady Grove. He said it is getting nasty down there. I alerted him to the tornado warning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattskiva Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 When the TOR warned storm passed here, I lost power (for about half a second). That's the second power loss of any kind we've had since we moved in three years ago - the only other one was during the Derecho (also for just a second).
