Hello all,
While i normally would not bother posting about weather that happened 2
1/2 weeks ago, i thought some might still be interested. During the
period of May 22 to 27, a cut off low in the Great Lakes spawned
several days of rain & severe thunderstorms. The NWS confirmed 7
tornados, or about the entire yearly average for either MD or VA.
I taped various newscasts, & compiled an album in my little bit of free
time i had over the last couple weeks.
The area saw hail to my NW thru NE Sat 5/26. While i did not get hail, i
got to watch Mammatus for more than 30 minutes!
And the next day, a severe thunderstorm produced more hail on the other
end of the county, from near Stevens City to Warren Co. A tornado was
later confirmed in this region,
the storm also produced a tornado in Olney MD (F1).
Unfortunately, i was working inside the mall, & had no idea what i
missed until i got home.
I occasionally will give the local paper wx info. The story that ran
5/29 implied that saw the 6" deep hail in northern Fred Co. What
actually happened, i heard a trooper talk about it Sunday (still
leftover), & i relayed that to the reporter.
