Subtropics Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Winds between 70-80 mph moving into an area from Columbia to Laurel...and south Baltimore. Not sure if what hit Rockville was a tornado, but the entire city limits felt the 70+ mph winds. Hearing reports of gusts over 70 from rockville to gaithersburg via family.

mattie g Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 So based on the radar, safe to say that was it? Partly cloudy for the rest of the day? That was what? Nothing here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herb@MAWS Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Very ominous here in East Columbia. Low and vivid lightning. Dark clouds to the WSW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kmlwx Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 HOLY HELL. That was insane. Lots of small/mod branches down here. Leaves and small twigs were swirling but my visibility was pretty limited. I would not doubt at all that something went thru just north. I want to let PD and Fire deal with stuff before I venture out a little. Lots of intersections dark according to ham radio and PD radio.

ravensrule Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Welp, I was wrong. You took it like a man, so you are excused. Do that in the winter though and you could get killed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adelphi_sky Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 I would say I experienced gusts no higher than 40. Definitely on the tail end of the MoCo storm further north. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dude Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Quick hitter here in Downtown. Nice gust front came through like a freight train. Below are pics from my roof at work. There was a bit of a lowering out in front of the gust front. It was a bit east of the notch on the radar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparky Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 I still hear rolling thunder and I am not even close to the main action. But the hail I got this morning was amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WEATHER53 Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Daughter was right in middle of it at route 100 and I-95. Says a narrow grey cloud came all the way down to the ground, sky was so green that almost became purple, blinding rain, zero visibility, all traffic pulled off the road, got lucky on the winds I think as she said car shook some but she never felt like it was going to flip.

kas80 Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Chesapeake Beach gets an amazing dry slot over it for pretty much every storm. Areas to the south and north of us get hit but splits over us, very curious about this one. So far just rolling thunder and a couple of wind gusts (no worse than normal being right on the bay). This morning we got about 5 minutes of pouring rain and no thunder nor wind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clueless Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 It was 67 right after the storm. Now I am up to 71/68. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herb@MAWS Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Worst of it has moved east of Columbia. Great sky as storm moved in, vivid lightning, wind gusts, temp dropped from 89 to 76, and 0.64" of rain in about 25 mins. with lighter rains now wrapping up.
