WEATHER NEWS | Published July 29, 2023 8:32pm EDT
80-mph winds rip through Washington, DC, causing significant damage across metro
The National Weather Service said winds gusts were estimated to have topped 80 mph in the metro area.
By Andrew Wulfeck , Aaron Barker Source FOX Weather
WASHINGTON Severe storms on Saturday produced wind gusts of hurricane force around the District of Columbia, downing trees and leading to widespread power outages.
First responders were busy in the first hours after the storm responding to calls of trees on top of homes and cars and called the damage in some neighborhoods "significant."
Videos and photos from K Street in the heart of the district to neighborhoods in the sprawling suburbs of Maryland and Virginia showed nearly the same scenes uprooted trees and snapped limbs nearly everywhere you turned.

Pretty clean here in Calvert.
Was looking to see whether our old house/DC neighborhood was effected. Can't tell.
