BREAKING: Tornado Watch Issued Until 2PM

Brought to you by Calvert Title Company

The Storm Prediction Center in Norman, OK has issued a TORNADO WATCH for the Mid-Atlantic, including:

This watch is in effect until 2PM Friday. Primary threats this evening are:

• A few tornadoes possible
• Isolated damaging wind gusts to 70 mph possible

SUMMARY: 

A gradual ramp-up of thunderstorm intensity and coverage should continue through the remainder of the morning in a destabilizing, moist environment, with enough shear to support supercells and bowing segments. A few tornadoes and scattered damaging to locally severe gusts are possible.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS: Remember, a Tornado WATCH just means conditions are favorable for tornadoes and severe thunderstorms to develop, nothing is occurring right now.  People in the watch area should be on the lookout for threatening weather conditions and listen for later statements and possible warnings if severe weather or tornadoes are imminent.

It will be important to stay with JB Weather for the latest information on this severe weather threat and the impacts here in Southern Maryland this afternoon.
