The Loudoun County t'storm has dropped below severe limits so the warning is dropped a little early. Still some heavy rain, small hail, and lightning heading over Waterford, Lucketts, and to Point of Rocks. #wtop pic.twitter.com/UrIVWAuvOt

Scattered thunderstorms developing in the higher elevations. They will grow and move east through the afternoon into early evening. Not all will get them, but those who do will have the potential again of some gusty winds and large hail. pic.twitter.com/1sy9EyZQhw

A severe thunderstorm warning is in effect until 6:45 p.m. in Carroll, Harford, Frederick and Baltimore counties in Maryland.
Warnings for severe thunderstorms in Montgomery and Frederick counties in Maryland and Loudoun County in Virginia expired earlier Sunday afternoon, but areas west of the D.C. area are feeling the severe storm threats.

Storm Team 4 Meteorologist Somara Theodore says the storms have also begun south and west of Luray, Virginia, and the National Weather Service has also issued a severe thunderstorm warning for the Staunton region.
Theodore says storms should clear just before sunset — and shouldn’t have a major impact on the Nationals game tonight.
