National Weather Service Surveying Tornado Damage In Edgewater

The storm damaged dozens of homes, sheared trees and scattered debris in Anne Arundel County.

“It was just a regular evening where we were sitting down to have dinner,” said resident Liz McCleskey. “The window smashed out, and it was either from a tree or it was from the pressure from the tornado. It was kind of terrifying."

EDGEWATER, MD — Cleanup efforts are underway after a powerful storm ripped through one Edgewater neighborhood Thursday night. The National Weather Service is out Friday to survey the damage from a reported tornado at Solomon’s Island Road and Virginia Avenue just off Route 2 near the South River Bridge.

One of the surveyors told WJZ the tornado’s strength could be between an EF-0 and EF-1, but that they are continuing to survey the damage before officially reporting if a tornado caused the damage.
