We’re in the basement. Does it look bad?

It’s already in Maryland. Missed most of Arlington and FFX

We are in Arlington and never received the tornado warning. I just saw it in Facebook. What the heck? We have always gotten them in the past.

Same. I noticed an Accuweather pop-up about 10 minutes after it came through. I never heard the siren alert on my phone or got the Arlington Alerts or anything. By the time we got to the basement, it was cancelled.

If you are in Fairfax or Arlington county and did not receive the emergency alert on your phone last night, check your settings. Not sure who to report issues to but it seems random who got the alert and who didn’t.

That doesn’t appear to be a tornado. Wild storm for sure.

The alert almost caused a heart attack in our house. It needs to have a volume control. I silence them on my phone -- which I know presents other issues.

The 2 gas stations at the corner of the mall @ 123 (where I've never gotten gas in 20 years) took a direct hit. CWG says is was a tornado.

Hmmm, I tend to just ignore these but maybe I will have to start paying attention. We are in a condo and have no basement (garden style condos on 2nd floor) so we have no where to go anyway.
