miles wide and i was privileged to attend viewing party at gaithersburg observe torey. they have old observatory not necessarily in use but created a parka around that there they expected between 800 and 10,000 how many came. >> 3,000. >> they ran out of glass it's was loaded with family and kids and everybody had to share the glasses and everyone d we got to see it at 81% h here. when does not mean it get dark we thought it was cooler and a big thunderstorm would develop in it did later. 2:42 in gaithersburg this big old cloud parked over. it we got to see it before and after. many enjoying. it wonderful time had by everyone we saw eclipse

rain move by and rain moved in. >> amazing. >> heavy rain. >> as a matter of fact mike thomas's story and we have severe weather now. >> holding it off until it impacted. >> just by don't know if that had anything to do with it. it may have taken sizzle and sun for a little but as soon as totality was over and partial 81% for us everything popped. so just want to show you quickly we are aware you had severe thunderstorms in stafford and charles and s st. mary county and we want you to be aware of that. not everybody is seeing storms but we have a tornado warning now. that changed. i'm going to get you the latest. >> go over there. >> we'll get you up to date on that. that's tornado warning for parts of st. mary county and i'll get you updated that just happened. >> hang on you're saying for a quick second you go check the xhurdz one more time say again sue so we know where it's coming through. >> that is i'm

it up now jim and it was severe thunderstorm warning for charles and st. mary county and now it has been changed over and red indicate that tornado warning. let me populateest warning on and read it to you you hire this is until 5:30 obviously this thing found rotation and there's quarter size hail possibly in it. this is nine miles iingt of pope creek and south eekt at 10 miles an hour. let me move this out of the way to see it we get in tight on some communities. so you know charles county it really is barely in your area a tiny bit of that region. so this is mostly for st. mary's country. this is radar indicated guys. it what not spotted but let me pull up the tags. radar seeing rotation. >> they're to the seeing it physically and looking at it

computers say that's going to be the case. as you look at this it's amazing how quickly this ink chad. we started a knew moments ago talking about severe weather in the after math of the eclipse and now certainly formulating with in what counties. >> mostly st. mary's county. if there's good news this is west central st. mary and southern tip of charles. this is areas brushwood, clem epts, compton, organza somewhat rural. your wig return this is moving southeast at 10. it looks like it's trying to develop a hook. i'll pause this and this is the area not far from c chattaco. i'm click the lightning off. you know there's a lot there. we want to see where more important part of the storm is. buds creek, madism. chatco. we'll give you a

there will be hail core. i'll check for hail. the reason we always watch for hail with the storms is that in indicator of where you may have an up draft strong enough to produce a tornado. in this area we have good amount. hail right arounds 2:34 we can get inside with this radar. let me see where my hail indicator is and we'll see how big in this green area hail -- well that's significant guys. when you get hail to the size of inch an a half that's prediction based on what our radar is seeing. that would indicate you may be seeing a storm strong enough with up draft to approach that. that's approaching 2:34. what i'll do is tools with the radar here i'll take the emof this storm we'll put a path on it we know it's moving southeast headed to 23 4

there it is where will it be in next 10, 11, miles again notice a lot of cities are not pop lay lateing what we put that up. that's important i'm say this tornado warnings goes until 5:30. high radar. large hail in it to put that in motion again. some of the things we can do is take a look at when we have severe storm like this we can often get indication for what else is going on with the starm. let's put on indicators and this will pop on a radar fi first. you see the most up tense part of the storm. this is showing us rotation in this area where you see the arrows, thompson corner, might be near you, white m comic owe to buds

it will go until 5:30 if they sense retation going away they may take it down sooner. let us know what you see down. there tweet us a picture. we have a lot of folks that watch "fox5" in the region. i can't believe this is not in a populated area. small portion here. >> let me ask you sue when you started the show we had severe thunderstorm warning 4:51 it up graded neighbor to minute later is that uncommon to see it upgrade quickly. >> no notal all jim you moneyed we have is tornado warning we're watching and other severe storms producing hail. any one of these could begin a process of rotating. this one is not warned and that is coming across the potomac headed to charles county.

thunderstorm warning here and let's but this up. we have a lot more people living in this area and hail is showing up at this unwith and there's a little bit of hail. you don't see intensity like you see in st. mary county. so not as big of a hail. this is around remmington and let's see how big that hail is as we one inch hail. it gets to be the size of quarters and that is a rigger for severe storm. but again getting back to our storm in st. mary county and hey this is eclipse buster isn't it. just when we thought we would talk about something super exciting with our eclipse which it was. >> this is exciteing too. >> this is exciteing too right. >> so what we seen

3450ed d.c. but they were concerned about the cloud cover coming through and i saw the lightning in the distance across the potomac in the virginia area and that's the storm system that came through this part of montgomery county and really started coming in and putting a damper on th things. everybody is outside when you look at that the. >> good sign the hail we've within watching is not as big. a few minute ago we were looking at up. and a half. a sign maybe our storm is it weakening and put this in motion green shows up tense and what i'm doing jim when we look at reports and pull up hail as well as radar. same watching to see in nip is reporting any of these has anyone seep a funnel cloyd. >> weather watches or anybody reporting these to the no notional weather service. >> people who are certified as weather spotters that we can trust they're knowing what they're saying. i'm

seeing a funnel cloud yet and not seen anyone reporting that they have seen hail to the size of one in. . again not an area that is very helply populated in this region which is a good things. we'll go out of hail mode now. tremendous. >> that's amazing. >> amount of lightning with that. one of the things we can do here and lightning? we worry about tornado owes we get people out of the way what injuries more people ligh lightning. the last 30 minutes we had 18 strikes. chatco seems to be the most intense part of the storm right now and that's the area that if you're watching in that area you want to get out of the way. we'll get in here this area you have intense rain and hail. it's approaching:38 i was trying to slow this down this goes by fast and let's take this is the last 30 minutes as we

yeah you can see this in motion moving southeast 10 miles an our and see if we can get any other little communities in the path. this is pretty much worst of it right here. still going strong i have not seen anything ending marine warnings from pool's island to sandy point and could be island worried about some stormset getting close for the bay in a little while as well. >> so for people tuning in this is tornado warning now effective until 5:30. >> 5:30, charles county and st. mary county. >> let me get the latest update as we look at it again this is sdopler indicated jim moving southeast at 10 miles an hour. when it's doppler oriented. let's see if we can find. it still rotating.

weather service seize that and they indicate they need to put up a tornado warning. when you have a storm with internal rotation and strong up draft able to drop the hail have we no not had a history of weak tornadoes this year i think 20 of them. >> i was wondering because you were talking about rotation sue will anybody see anything? i mean this is not a point anything comes down from the sky. it's something -- >> well what you would look for sarah this is tough one. this has so much rain, hail, my first indication would be if you're in an area getting hail now go to the basement. you want to get in interior room away from windows take cover this is brushwood, clemens, as you heard me mention marganza chattico mount victory way comb

you want to move to basement or interior room on the lowest floor. avoid windows in outdoors and driving in this get to as soon as possible stabling shelter. you don't want to be caught in the wind with this and don't want to be daughter if there's debris. take that little indicator o off. let's see where that s let take that off and again let's drill down as far as we can. it doesn't want to come off. let's try getting back to radar and i'll click off the lightning which makes it hard to see. but obviously that dark red color indicates most intense portion ever the storm s can we get even down to some neighborhoods you recognize these roads. not that familiar. ten top school trod east lakeland drive this will be and i'll put this in motion for the last 30 minutes or so why it's goting to really intense right there right now. these

yowalski maui road this is the most intense part of storm. let's click on sheer see what we're seeing with this as well and what we're looking for here is the -- we want to see red and green bumped up together not necessarily this sikt but strong winds in. there let's see if we can get an requested of how strong that might be. 47 miles an hour. significant. that's enough to take down some tree limbs and produce damage. back to our storm click off lightning and again we'll put this in motion and still checking now to see if we're getting ground truth. tornado warning in effect goes to 5:30 and yeah man mother nature way to hijack the other part of the show. st. mary county very small part of charles country as well. charles

coming in aarr area i don't mean to ignore other areas with greater population and tornado warnings awls get attention because of the damage they canen picture to. we remind you this is severe thunderstorm. could this rotate at some point it could. we watch the hail and other signatures with it. this one goes until 5:3, fauquier, prince pill yum, stafford, when strongs cam through whether rotation or straight line gusts to these or branches could fall they injured people outdoors and roadways can and that's why we really want to you take these seriouslyet and get out of the way. let's take a minute to check this one we will continue to watch our warndz tarnado b barked store which looks ib tense here and m

east so miles an hour. likely with heavy rain as we look towards maryland not much going on. baltimore had strong storms and got you back down to this one and reis the a little to show you that this tornado warning is for very small portion of charles county and st. mary's until 5:30 and strong enough in the september to support a tornado if one were spotted and nobody has said they've seep a funnel but radar has indicated rotation. we have not seen debris but it would be a sign that something is going on. there so we'll put this in motion for the last 45 minute here. sue how quickly is the storm moving do you expect it tlou throe through those areas in the next five, ten minutes. >> that's the problem with this sarah it's moving slowly. it's 34506ing southeast 10 mimes an hour

see tornado storm the element we're seeing moves north east this is southeast at 10. that's rather slow. it will be getting close to route 5 looks like here and 242. it looks like worst of it is across route 234 as we get into central portions of m mary county and this has a little ways to go before they have to make some changes to the warping. but, again, this is bushwood, clemens, compton, morgana, mount victory. tin top hill. a lot of communities and again if we put this in motion the last 45 minutes you see where the intense color s let's again fan this out and see if we can catch leonardtown. we're right in the path of that if this konsz continues going strong and i go to leonardtown california bigger

hope this will be less than ten form it is definitely still holding together as we put it in motion. the worst may be passing north or west of leopard town. when it gets closer to you. check my warning. this is well not in our area. but they are canceling out okay tornado warning for charles cancelled. what they've done is trimmed that back. it was only a small portion. radar indicated that there i might be sir laix and in s st. mary county the doornado warning continues until 5:30. >> i want to give people a heads up we're getting reports in charles county that there are downed trees in the la plata area significant which would of course equate to what we're seeing here

>> previously sim and sarah we will have a severe thunderstorm about that, about 6:0 i think at that point it was straight line wind damage. even sew that's significant. >> while we're going through the maps again we should reiterate for people tuning in. we have two situation as i severe thunderstorm warning for stafford, prince william, fauquier and then in maryland we have a tornado warning. >> just for st. mary's. >> by the way i got another report and this is flash flood report not in areas we're watching these had very heavy rain. >> baltimore area. >> it's howard county and it's khunty of hanover 4:14 they say maryland westbound lane closed because you know it was trop beingly humid today. the other storms moving slowly without rotation have a trem ep us amount of rain in them sglem if are you in in areas

if it's safe shows is what you're saying and send to eeshl madeia we want what you're seeing but it's another to see it first happened obviously is pretty important as well. >> in fact let's do that too, jim, ar after, kind ref set so fem see what we're talking about. we're looking towards mving county and was affecting part of howard country. rain south of baltimore and we've had another move through in the buoy area. that's not a war storm that's the storm jim was talking about in stafford and looks like that got trind as well. something dropped out. it is not as big as it was. >> skushlly has hail to the eyes of quarter and current up to of. moving east 39. that could produce tree

i'll go over and check tore made 'warned storm and that's in st. mary country. they're did they change charles to severe thunderstorm like something may have kuxing changed and no i'm not sure -- >> it looks like they may have just taken st. mary's country. i want to make sure this is not old this says charles and st. mary now in severe thunderstorm warning. but i'm not seeing any indication that the tornado washing dropped. we are going to be safe when we can and continue to watch. hey guess who just showed up. tucker barnes tucker almost to my world we have eclipse and strong storms i'm mad at

this. >> so clear continuing thunderstorm warning for fauquier and stafford tore 5,000 and cancelled prince william out fwi we have two stobyes i took video. we can pause tracking the tore made '. >> we did a great job. i was read i was doing ross kunsry. >> is it possible that the sun being looked prevented us from hooking up thighs storms possible brother back if gaugeers huring pollutely down care. >> that's a deep thought sar ar after, any way, update the severe thunderstorm we dropped prince william out of it. again this is moving so long eekt only 5 miles an hour on the movement

will be heavy rain producer as it heads to 91 friends and watch that one wide water to heard ford. but, of course, all eyes right now are on our 20 if here comes another wombing ge laugh but what about this tornado warning. i'm not seeing ap -- >> it remains in effect 5:30. >> that's coming up too. 7 or 8 minutes. let's look closely in the storm and drill down a little to show communities. >> south eekt at 15 and tornado quarter size hail. so it's blossomed. >> yeah, well you know what let's check the hail. here's heavy rain. coming down 2:34 getting close to

that goes by fast folks it has tremendous lightning between craptico and clemens and this is the worst stonl ribl now and the size of the hail we check hail own it's still for st. mary county. >> st. mary county a few more minutes. >> that should go until 5:30. it will be interesting to see if they cancel early sarah or extend. it they -- the hail is still significant you know got a lot of real estate covering here and brightest part in the middle is going down. and at one point we saw inch and a half. and 1" inch is significant we hope so. >> this is pulse thunderstorm it pulses up and breathes and will let go. so hopefully the worst is over.

bigger conference we'll have soon it's an active tornado season and we're the causes behind that. obviously we had the damage a couple weeks ago. over near stevensville and i think this more than imagination that we had a stoozen confirmed tore made otz. >> a lot of ef zeros and don't for the get there wasen be. >> i don't remember a season we had. of course tornadoes radar indicated and they're rated 5 to a. we had avenue ef zeros and threes unones and twos. 79 st. mary county take that lightning off. we know it's a lot of

it's trying to weaken. but it's not weak enough i can see where they're not ca canceling list. flash flooding. due to the right around of moisture the slow motion now gov got warping for that. matter of fact we can look at precipitation rates if we k each if we can't find rate we can get an idea how much has fallen in the area. again that's a new warning to keep track of. if we can estimate with radar how much hasle fen a few areas northwest of mechanicsville come up. poot should be giving me a little number. and it doesn't seem to wants to come up. it may be too new. inch or two of rain has fallen in brighter areas down. there another big concern. >> saturated with

not imagination it's been a wet august and add inch or two causes problems. likely to be downed trees and potentially problems with creeks and rivers. >> as we look at everything you can sigh the red area indicating our tornado warning until 5:30 this doesn't get to leopard town if you do watch that and you have a severe i don't know the flash flood washing is giving up now. that's what you see in the green overlaying everything else and that's goes charles countsy and st. marys overnight tonight in that area and flash noting win mech mechanicsville, charlotte h hall, brushwood, maddox, adam, coke hi.

flooding is imtent or occurring. if that's an area you are in make sure you get to higher ground. >> that thunderstorm is drifting south 10 miles an hour. >> tornado warnings canc cancelled. >> and here's what we he have left. tornado warping is over and we with see what mike some as you still have a lot of weather there and take off the warnings to put on radar. that's a big thunderstorm with an tut. it will bring a lot of heavy rain through the area. there's a flash flood warning until:30 that's your bigger concern going for war aswe watch the storm moving along way. seeing anything else tucker. >> no i'm just reading about flood warping. it looks like stafford county storm expired.

done dock by the woo! the area that previously up? the howard county area by the way. it's wonderful to work with you. >> i saw sue by herself. she needed help here. >> great work ep and co-worker and we'll let you know if we see anything else popping up and more of the eclipse coverage coming up. we don't want to miss out on what michael thomas had to see. >> we'll hit the reset puton and get everything situated and we're back with more of the news at 5 after this.

emotions were running high at the bond hearing for antonio williams. he struggled yesterday alseemed disoriented at times. suspect could be heard saying i'm not the one you're looking for and i'm not going within minutes the judge stopped the hearing and/or aid mental competency evaluation be completed by next tuesday. >> we are looking forward to having that competency hearing concluded as quickly as possible and continue to prosecute. it is as you might imagine it was just this has to have been one of the most

we had so far. >> over the weekend he was charged with three counts of murder. it was friday morning wil william's mother came home to find her daughter and two nieces stabbed to death in a basement bedroom. >> meantime a former prince george county school aid as sentenced to 75 years in prison for sexually abusing business. deate caroway as soon as will be supervisedly a lifetime the 23-year-old worked at judge sylvania woods elementary school. he met with many victims at the school and recruited others from the choir group. tonight big concerns about the future of providence hospital in north east d.c.. owners of the hospital plan to transform the city from a hospital in helm village. what does that mean. >> storss telling "fox5" there could be changes to maternity and mental health services as soon as this fa falls. fox's tom fitzgerald spoke with mayor bowser about this

all of it. >> we does just talk to mayor becauseer sarah and here's the situation. drkts c. is telling us this decision to possibly scale back ob stelt ricks in the hospital also decision to possibly scale back behavioral health services in the hospital d.c. is saying this is prove dent hospital's decision not district's decision. you may remember earlier this month over in southeast united medical center they were ordered by d.c. to stop delivering babies because district identified problems with mothers as they were delivering children in that facility. now these are two separate incidents and they could have the same impact. namely two less places in northeast and southeast for women to deliver babies and in our conversation with the mayor about this she says two things. department of hel isn't monitoring the situation and right now she is having them direct people in those

communities to the places they can get prenatal care and behavioral health care they needs. >> we're very proud in our city that 99% of residents have insurance. we want women to get in touch with their daughter and primary care conscious and getting preprenatal care as soon as possible. ask. >> now, this announcement by providence hospital came at the end of last week. news is that their transitioning themselves away from being a hospital into something called a health village. now, there were no outright details about how that would work whether it dime obstetrics or behavioral health services the hospital provides. however, they did say that they are looking for development partner for their property in northeast.

welcomed in that northeast neighborhood where providence hospital is located. you talk to the people in the neighborhood and they will tell you any step in their view to remove the care of women delivering babies or any step in removing the care of people who need behavioral or mental health services well they'll tell you flat out they believe that will impact and not in a good way the healthcare services that community depends on. >> a lot of people go here. >> it would be bad. >> it would be very bad. >> this would be very bad. >> people got a lot of is issues. they need therapists and things. plus ladies have babies they need a place to go. >> it's important issue to this community. >> yeah. >> you might notice you did not hear from providence hospital in that report. "fox5" sent numerous exmails to public relations department of

been phone calls and mess amounts left and we have not heard back from them at all. d.c. health department tells them they're monitoring in close coordination with the mayor's office. live in northwest tonight tom fitzgerald "fox5 local news". >> afghanistan war is largest in nation's history. tonight will be president trump's first primetime broadcast on policy. >> "fox5" ronica cleary is live with details on what we can expect tonight, ronica. >> jim, sarah. defense secretary mad its is on overnight flight with rereporters. this was saturday night at that time the president came to a decision about the future of troops in after gap stap. since that came out the white house has been close to the investigate with details about what we might

during the president's remarks at for the meyer. we can expect the president to announce increased troop levels in afghanistan. i spoke with anthony tata retired bringing deer general and officer be soothed about the military option the president has has he prepares for tonight's rocks. take a listen. >> while the options are either increased force or get out. so i think what he's going to do is approve a modest force increase and outline a strategy and what he's seen and iraq in syria is when he allows commanders to fight the fight you get ak sem ration of defeatingen my whereas in the past the commanders were handcuffed. >> i handful of tweets from

2013. 234 those tweets he said we should not increase troop levels and pointed to cost associated with that and of course increase loss of life. as i said it is expected that tonight years later of course the president is taking a different tune that we can expect him to talk about increased troop levels. now i spoke with nile stanage a white house columnist for the hill. he has to walk a type line for one that called for america first again dut but being &-úe talk about increasing troops is this smart move for the presidents to take polit politically. >> it's relatively stave stance to think. political challenge here is partly in explain what a victory in afghanistan would look like or mean. the united states has been there 16 years. we don't

victory would mean in after gap stan now and it's not clear how adding a few thousand and more troops will get to the goal. >> what would you like so see happen anyone afghan tan. we took to the treat 5@630 to bring you the pulse of the people and make sure you weigh in and use that # i'll be back with all that coming up. reporting live in arlington. ronica cleary, "fox5 local news". >> all right. well, the good news is everything we saw earlier seems to be subsiding but there's still people facing earth issues now. got caught up with things we're at. i wanted to show you on radar the bulk of activity we're watching is mainly south of d.c. putting up a bigger picture now that you can see. then i also have to show you some storms still have warnings including st.

county this is thunderstorm bark because it's capable of gusts to 60 and no quarter rotation there but hey and quickly put that in motion. you green area is flash flood washing here are few communities in the path of the st. marry storm. california, lexington park. drum point and st. marry city between now and 5:57. that storm definitely has attitude with it and then have severe thunderstorm warnings now continuing for culpeper, faulker even stafford. those go until 6:15 they tends to be moving faster southeast and some of it looks like almost pushing due south. heavy on the western portion of that severe thunderstorm warning area. so that is what we're watching right now. and of course we will continue to keep track of these storms and other

forecast in a few minutes. big changes on the 7-day you won't juan to miss that. "fox5 local news" at 5 will be right back. is

total eclipse of the heart♪ set to♪ number one song on itunes remade by nikki french. it's made a total come back by the eclipse and today the singer performed the song for audience abored a cruiseship. >> i wish they reenacted the

total solar eclipse in 1998 and she tried to describe it to me. we of course watched her video show took on the cruise ship in 98 there's nothing sitting and watching videos or photos none of it describes the whole feeling or givers you you that same experience as actually being there and watching daylight fade into basically twilight to near nighttime conditions. nighttime animals come out. you can hear the crickets rise and everything gets calm and still. eary kind of feeling. and then as the total eclipse occurs you get almost like this spider web like effect of the sun's atmosphere surrounding moon there and it's just the most incredible experience. honestly we got chills and goose bumps up and down my arms the entire time. once in a lifetime kind of thing. hopefully not. we have 2024. certainly for all the folks there we were at a little part agn

columbia. not a very big city and not a very big part. people came out in droves. there were a couple hundred people there they meng they had were having an event at a lake with bigger clouds. so again all in all a great experience. we were worried about the clouds. we had cloud issues early. but with the temperature drop when the moon eclipses sun there temperature began to drop and with the temperature drop the clouds that were caused by the daytime humidity and heat really kind of fade away rather quickly. guys, sarah, jim, if you have an opportunity if you have not seen one i was not sure jim did you say you had seen one. >> i did i was upen the roof of a building and checked it out. >> yeah, yeah, well for totality though you have to say totality totally different experience you. >> seem so excited mike we're glad you were down there and checked it out. it looks like you had a great time. thanks for talking with us on your dive back. be safe.
