Pretty tame wind, but we did have about a minute of nickle sized hail here in Leesburg. The storm also looked pretty cool on approach.

Just a lightning barrage with that eastern Loudoun county storm.

One thing today to the W in WV into wrn VA, lots of intense cells and tornadic signatures embedded well into larger precip areas, something you see more in a strongly-forced, dynamical set ups, which we do have today w/ the strong 500 trough and a solid 250 jet max moving into the region now.  Not something you see in the summer that often.

These embedded cells all seem to still want to try to hook - I think we really lucked out on not having a widespread issue today.
