Midwest has an active tornado: "hey, let's all have some drinks and watch the entertaining weather"
Washington DC has a tornado watch: " ok everyone, we've got a serious storm alert, gets everything you need to do to stay safe. We're closing everything down so people can board up windows and prepare."
It sure is interesting seeing how different areas deal with weather.
Also, sorry for bringing the Midwest weather with me. Enjoy the fun storms!

Rare (for the area) Level 4 of 5 severe weather risk includes DC today. Widespread wind damage and brief tornadoes along line a decent bet, with some potential for supercells ahead of the line.
Threat focuses late afternoon/early evening around here.
First moderate risk from SPC for the area since 2013. #dcwx #vawx #mdwx #dmvwx
Level 3 of 5 enhanced #severe #thunderstorm risk Monday from the Storm Prediction Center.
Looks like potential for frontrunning supercells and then a line trying to cross the Appalachians, in the #DC/#Baltimore region and westward.
About 1 enhanced risk on Day 2 (today) per year and a handful for Day 1, via Iowa Environmental Mesonet stats. #uswx #mdwx #vawx #wvwx #dcwx #dmvwx

This has been about as lame a storm season as you can get around here.
Nice to see and hear daily pop ups lately. Big circular outflow from old storm near Dulles radar. #dmvwx
Between the poor air quality and El Niño storms, this June has been interesting.
At least it’s not above 300 like last time.

Latest rainfall forecast for this weekend through Tuesday evening. Again, most of the rain for #Virginia arrives late Saturday night/Sunday. Temperatures will run on the cool side Sunday with highs in the mid 60s, and 50s in western North Carolina. Spotty showers could linger into Monday. #vawx #mdwx #dmvwx
