Impressive LSR out of Grafton, WV for that western line "Sustained 35 mph for 5 minutes with gusts to 62 mph."

Bit of initiation happening west of DC from the outflow from the earlier southern storms.

Yep, trying to pop off a bit. Wouldn’t mind a little storm tonight to end the weekend.

Poppin off. Sunset magic hour. Boundary layer decouples and you get a stray gust front (La Plata storm) or subtle s/w aloft and go time.

Garden variety heavy rain in Odenton. 

[Eskimo Joe]

Constant lightning just to my west in Reisterstown. Cats army crawled down to the basement.

Interesting radar signature just NW of Sykesville, MD 

[NorthArlington101]

Little bit of lightning in the distance at least. Oh well

NoVA got skunked. Line to the west is fading. Just showers later I would think.

[Stormchaserchuck1]

Probably my best thunderstorm of the year ongoing

[Eskimo Joe]

That cell in Libertytown/Walkersville appears to have been legit. Some reports of structure damage. . .maybe a tornado?

Thats quite the cluster from baltimore up into Lancaster co. Impressive amount of lightning.
