Very windy with fast moving dark clouds in Dupont Circle. Ground looks wet but rain must be a mist/drizzle.

We're in Springfield. The wind blew in. And then moved on. It's dark here but not scary anymore.

Yep looks like there’s a severe thunderstorm warning for most of the region until 6:45 now.

Don't be. If you get rain before the squall line, it will considerably dampen the second event's impact. Rain now is a good thing to calm down your neck of the woods.


I hope you're right. The pop up rain is over, but it's eerily calm now. It feels unsettling.

Per the news, what is hitting Falls CHurch/Arl/DC right now is NOT the main event.
