Looks to me like Ashburn Village, if I had to guess.
How much protection is afforded by the water and by the structure itself?
That's 'cause we ain't got no trailer parks....
Good Grief! The bad news is, Ted Kennedy's wieght will likely keep him from being blwon away.
Seriously, I hope people are heeding the alerts-tornadoes are nothing to sneeze at. Those ones in the pics look like nasty suckers.
That looks bad....especially being such a heavily populated area.
Roger, copy that. D'oh.
Gosh...Hurricanes, Tornados, Flooding, and 3.7 mag. earthquake in Kentucky. Maybe we should all be singing..."Gods trying to tell you something..." (from the movie The Color Purple.} Stay safe everyone!! And.....Jeanne is on her way!!
Good Lord! People better tip WELL!
I have to say I feel for the coaches. Last report I had said the boys weren't allowed to run to their cars to get backpacks to do homework. What a nightmare!
On another note, they changed the meet-up location last time from The Virginian to the BBQ place near Baskin Robbins. We even got to watch Fox News!
My daughter is visiting Virginia Beach and she just called to say that things are fine. In fact, they were getting ready to go out to dinner. It wasn't even raining as of 15 minutes ago.
We pray for safety to you & yours in the affected areas. May God bless & keep you all well.
I'm in PA .. it's still a distance away from me
But I am keeping an eye on it
I dunno, but WMAL (630 AM) had a truck driver on earlier who said that a tornado had just crossed the road in front of him.
WMAL is NOW reporting a tornado 3mi SE of Waldorf, moving north at 40mph
And what about that one up by the old Cracked Claw location, north of Beahm's junk yard, not CC's "new" location at the old Peter Pan.
Come to think of it, MoCo doesn't have any junk yards anymore either, do they?
RALEIGH, N.C. -- Flights have been suspended in and out of Raleigh-Durham International Airport Friday afternoon after wind gusts of 79 mph were recorded there.
WRAL is reporting (and showed a picture of) over turned planes, part of a roof blown off, windows of glass bus stop shelters blown out, car and structure damage at the airport.
from other forum...
Tornado warnings for Berkeley County, WV and Frederick and Washington Counties, MD, until 8:30pm...
