BULLETIN - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED Severe Thunderstorm Warning National Weather Service Baltimore MD/Washington DC 1252 PM EDT Sun Mar 16 2025 The National Weather Service in Sterling Virginia has issued a * Severe Thunderstorm Warning for... Garrett County in western Maryland... Northwestern Grant County in eastern West Virginia... West central Mineral County in eastern West Virginia... * Until 145 PM EDT. * At 1250 PM EDT, severe thunderstorms were located along a line extending from near Uniontown to near Belington, moving east at 45 mph. HAZARD...60 mph wind gusts. SOURCE...Radar indicated. This line of thunderstorms has a history of producing damaging winds. IMPACT...Damaging winds will cause some trees and large branches to fall. This could injure those outdoors, as well as damage homes and vehicles. Roadways may become blocked by downed trees. Localized power outages are possible. Unsecured light objects may become projectiles. * Locations impacted include... Beechwood, Redhouse, Bittinger, Hutton, Gorman, Oakland, Jennings, Deep Creek Lake State Park, Crellin, Swallow Falls State Park, Deer Park, McHenry, Big Run State Park, Friendsville, Piney Grove, McComas Beach, Kitzmiller, Merrill, Mountain Lake Park, and Emoryville. PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS... For your protection move to an interior room on the lowest floor of a building. Damaging wind and continuous cloud to ground lightning are occurring with these storms. Move indoors immediately. Lightning is one of nature`s leading killers. Remember, if you can hear thunder, you are close enough to be struck by lightning. A Tornado Watch remains in effect until 700 PM EDT for western Maryland...and eastern West Virginia.

URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED Tornado Watch Number 54 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1250 PM EDT Sun Mar 16 2025 The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a * Tornado Watch for portions of Western Maryland Western and Central Pennsylvania Northern Virginia Eastern West Virginia * Effective this Sunday afternoon and evening from 1250 PM until 700 PM EDT. * Primary threats include... A couple tornadoes possible Scattered damaging wind gusts to 70 mph likely SUMMARY...A line of thunderstorms will move quickly northeastward this afternoon and evening, while posing a threat for mainly damaging winds with peak gusts up to 60-70 mph. A couple of line-embedded tornadoes may also occur. The tornado watch area is approximately along and 40 statute miles east and west of a line from 75 miles north of State College PA to 10 miles west southwest of Staunton VA. For a complete depiction of the watch see the associated watch outline update (WOUS64 KWNS WOU4).

Tornado Watch up E WV/ W MD/ i81 corridor in VA until 7pm @Kmlwx @Eskimo Joe @high risk

Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1128 AM CDT Sun Mar 16 2025 Valid 161630Z - 171200Z ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF FAR EASTERN OHIO INTO NORTHERN WEST VIRGINIA...FAR WESTERN MARYLAND...AND WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA... ...SUMMARY... Scattered damaging wind swaths and a few tornadoes will be the primary threats this afternoon and evening across parts of the Ohio Valley into the Mid-Atlantic and Southeast. ...Ohio Valley into the Mid-Atlantic... A highly amplified upper trough over the MS Valley this morning will advance eastward over much of the eastern CONUS today. An embedded 100+ kt southwesterly mid-level jet and associated large-scale ascent will overspread the upper OH Valley and western Mid-Atlantic regions through this evening. The primary surface low over eastern Lower MI will develop northeastward into Ontario and Quebec through the day, while an attendant cold front sweeps eastward across the OH Valley/Mid-Atlantic through the period. Recent visible satellite imagery shows some clearing ahead of the synoptic cold front in eastern OH and western PA. Although low-level moisture will be somewhat limited, with surface dewpoints generally in the mid to upper 50s, cool mid-level temperatures will overspread the narrow warm sector this afternoon. This, combined with daytime heating, will support a narrow zone of up to 250-500 J/kg of MLCAPE just ahead of the cold front and/or pre-frontal trough, which should be sufficient for surface-based convection. Bands of low-topped thunderstorms have developed both along and just ahead of the cold front. This activity will move quickly east-northeastward across WV, western/central PA, and parts of NY through the day. With strong low/mid-level flow already in place per area VWPs, this line should pose a threat for mainly scattered damaging winds, with peak gusts perhaps reaching up to 60-70 mph. There will also be rather strong low-level shear in place, which may support some threat for a few tornadoes embedded within the line, especially if low-level flow can remain backed more to a southeasterly component. The northeastward extent of this severe wind and tornado risk into the Mid-Atlantic and NY remains unclear, as persistent cloud cover will inhibit daytime heating to some extent. Still, most guidance shows one or more lines persisting through the afternoon and evening while posing some wind threat. Severe probabilities have been adjusted northeastward across parts of the Mid-Atlantic to account for latest observational and guidance trends.

5% tor line moved eastward 50 to 60 miles on 1630z OTLK... now includes DC metro and all of C MD 15% wind and SLGT risk also moved in that direction

Hmmm... Palmyra cell looks interesting

And the line in WV that goes all the way down to the S WV/VA border that's severe warned?

Mesoscale Discussion 0228 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1108 AM CDT Sun Mar 16 2025 Areas affected...West Virginia...far western Maryland...western and central Pennsylvania...and far southwestern New York. Concerning...Tornado Watch 53... Valid 161608Z - 161745Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 53 continues. SUMMARY...The threat for damaging winds and isolated tornadoes remains through mid-afternoon. DISCUSSION...A line of storms has now developed along the pre-frontal trough across West Virginia and eastern Ohio/southwest Pennsylvania. This line of storms is already starting to accelerate northeast. Visible satellite continues to show cloud breaks ahead of these storms which should allow for some destabilization immediately ahead of these storms. Damaging wind gusts and a few tornadoes remain the primary threat. These storms may reach the eastern edge of tornado watch 53 within the next 60 to 90 minutes. An additional watch may be needed soon across portions of central Pennsylvania and perhaps into southern New York. ..Bentley/Gleason.. 03/16/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

ENH just appeared on 1300z SPC OTLK for W MD and W PA

New Day 1 shifted the SLGT risk N and W a large amount

Sarcasm has never been my strong suit... but I've said for years my teams are: Rangers in MLB (used to be the Senators before they moved to Texas, my dad's team) Penguins in NHL before Crosby/Ovechkin came into the league. I loved Mario Bullets aka Wizards NBA Commanders in the NFL George Mason in NCAA Basketball (graduated in 2009 from there)

Never did. Grew up in Springfield VA.
