SPARROWS POINT, MD — Neighborhoods along the water got hit hard Monday night by winds, rain, and hail. Many in Sparrows Point woke up to downed trees, power outages, and damage to their property from broken branches and tree limbs.

Mike Loncala lives right on the water and said a tree that has weathered many storms was ripped from the ground overnight. “That tree survived of bad wind, all of that, and now this one took it down. We couldn’t believe it,” said Loncala.

Loncala said he went to look out the window Monday night at the height of the storm and saw nothing. “I go to look out and I can’t see 2 feet, that’s the worst I’ve ever seen it.” He and his wife had to mop water off the kitchen floor after the rain and wind were pushing water into their house from the door jam on the floor.
