12z ARW2 brings some cells/line through around 5 or 6 and then has a rogue super cellular type thing doing what @Eskimo Joe mentioned earlier lol

ETA: It shows it in the 02-04z timeframe. 

Am in Tysons. Sky is mordor black to my south. Constant thunder. Definitely some boundary working.

3+ inches of rain from the storm as it passed through Burke, and going. Not surprised it was just warned for tornado, nasty stuff. 

Kudos to LWX to hit the Flash Flood Warning early.  I was skeptical based on radar, but these are efficient as hell.  I’m at 0.61” despite being on the periphery.

Tornado Warning Fairfax/Alexandria and Arlington 

That's the cell that blew the hell up right over me.

Yeah...that storm was wringing out every last ounce of moisture it could.

Oh man @H2O under a tornado warning 

That was probably almost as bad as the derecho wind wise. Legit 50-60 winds at times with higher gusts. Lost power briefly but back on now. 
 

Went from severe warning to TOR to flood in 20 min. 
 

Also had to help two gas line contractors who got stuck in the storm because it hit fast and their car wasn’t close by. They were under a damn tree of all things. So got them under my my porch and out of the rain and wind

I don't think there were winds anything like that in upper NW but I was inside when the storm hit so didn't see the initial gust. But as (the lack of) a telltale sign, very little tree debris/leaves down -- much less branches -- on the way home thru my neighborhood. Torrential rain though.

That's at least the second time recently DCA has met/exceeded severe wind criteria. Pretty sure they did at least on 7.29; maybe some other date as well?
