5:05p Wednesday: How have storms been for you?

They were INTENSE as they came through Manassas w/ downed trees and large hail and a report of one woman suffering a head injury due to hail.

The strongest storms right now are near Olney and along I95 just south of the District moving into Maryland.

I was hoping it would cool off but no such luck. Skies are looking blue and kinda hazy now. In Loudoun.
