this is the area here we're concerned about just south of winchester between winchester and strasburg. it had hail a little while ago and oftentimes tornadoes come out of thunderstorms that have large hail. we have talked about this earlier. this storm had quarter size hail, perhaps even ping pong ball size hail. so if you're around winchester, around 340, you need to take cover. if you're in barryville take cover. the storm is moving east, northeast at 15 miles per hour. these are the areas we're concerned about, lost corner 5:27, millwood at 5:40 and a place called frogtown at 6:02. even if you're in percyville put down your umbrellas and secure loose objects. this will have pretty good winds with it whether or not it produces a tornado as it pushes east. again if you're south of winchester in the southern burbs or around millwood or -- suburbs or around millwood or barryville take cover, go to an interior room or basement. it has a lot of lightning as well. go indoors. get the kids inside and this storm will continue to move off to the east. so you folks in charlestown, too you've

and now people are worried a similar fate could be in store for the iconic winchester theaters in san jose. nbc bay area's bob redell joins us live from those theaters with how residents are trying to step in and save the domes. >> reporter: good morning. there are five domes here at a winchester theaters across from santana row, each roughly about a half century old. it is likely they will be destroyed after their lease soon expires because the city of san jose recently designated this 11-acre parcel of land frp housing and retail, unless a small group of preserveatoinists can do something about it. >> i saw "grease" there, all the iconic movies. i thought, this can't happen. >> reporter: rebecca is trying to use the new to save the old. she started an online petition to convince city hall to designate the nearly 50-year-old winchester theaters a historic landmark and hopefully save them from the same fate that doomed the dome in pleasant hill. >> i guess we have to ask ourselves, a building that's younger than me, is that historic? >> reporter: this councilman sees no reason why t

you have five here as far as the winchester theater complex.to persuade the is thety to declare this area a historic landmark and save it from a wrecking crew. the city has made it clear they would like to see this 11-acre parcel developed for housing and retail. preservationists argue that would add more traffic to an area that is already clogged with shoppers going to santana row. movi movi moviegoers would have to travel further. these theaters have been here for almost 50 years. this is where many people saw their first film. to see it destroyed would be heartbreaking. that being said, only 28 people assigned this online petition so far to preserve these theaters here in san jose. to give you some compare ton, in pleasant hill, an online petition. four people signed it to save that theater. there was some back and forth they had a lot of support from people saying, please don't destroy that. the city council gave the developer the okay to destroy that dome theater. that had been there for almost a half century. they knocked it down and the
