National Weather Service Baltimore/Washington Weather Forecast 
Office staff conducted a ground survey of storm damage that 
occurred in Page County Virginia on the evening of Friday, May 30,
2025.

During the evening of Friday May 30th, a rotating thunderstorm 
that was noted on NWS weather radar KLWX moved east northeast 
across the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia. At 6:06 PM EDT the 
rotation tightened, and a tornado touched down on the Luray 
Mobile Homes community on Luray Mobile Homes Lane. The tornado 
created a narrow path of damage east northeast through the 
community and into the woods. Three large trees were uprooted and 
several large branches were snapped from the middle to upper 
reaches of the trees. Damage was in a convergent pattern. A few 
vehicles were damaged by falling branches.

The tornado then crossed farming fields until it came to the 
property adjacent to where Kimball Road intersects with 
Springfield Road. The resident there provided his eyewitness 
account of seeing the rotating tornado and debris. On that 
property, several large branches and sections of trees were 
snapped by the tornado as it crossed. Also a gardening fence was 
destroyed.

After crossing Kimball Road, a downdraft descended from the 
parent storm, ending the tornadic circulation at 6:08 PM EDT. 
That downdraft continued to produce damage as it pushed to the 
east-northeast. On properties along Springfield and Outpost 
Roads, four more trees were felled, large branches were snapped, 
and a large shed was unroofed and destroyed.

By the time the storm reached Elgin Drive, no further damage was 
seen.

The National Weather Service Baltimore/Washington Weather 
Forecast Office thanks the Page County Office of Emergency 
Services for their assistance in conducting and providing 
information for this storm survey.

Survey Summary:

During the early afternoon of Wednesday June 18th, a cluster of
severe thunderstorms crossed central Maryland between Washington
and Baltimore. One storm briefly produced a tornado in northwestern
Anne Arundel County Maryland, in southern Odenton. 

At 2:15 PM EST, a tornado touched down in the community of Chapel
Village, just south of the southern end of Chapel Hill Blvd.
There, along the north edge of a water retention pond, it 
uprooted two trees. It continued southeast and crossed the 800 
block of Sunny Chapel Road. Here is where the damage was most 
intense. Three homes had siding and shingle damage. Behind one of 
the homes, numerous trees were uprooted and large sections of 
trees snapped. At least two trees fell onto homes, and one crushed
an outdoor deck. Damage on the north side of the path was blown to
the south, and damage on the south side of the path was blown to
the north-northeast.

The tornado proceeded southeast, and crossed the southern 
cul-de-sac of Golden Chapel Road. There it damaged shingles and 
siding on three additional homes, blew out the attic window on two
homes, and uprooted three more trees and snapped large branches. 
At this point, after just a minute on the ground and a tenth of a 
mile path, the tornado lifted at 2:16 PM EDT. 

A funnel cloud video was shared on social media from Odenton.

The ground survey continued to the southeast, but only isolated
tree damage was seen sporadically, likely due to the severe
thunderstorm wind gusts at times from the parent thunderstorm.

The National Weather Service extends its appreciation to the Anne
Arundel County Office of Emergency Management and our SKYWARN
weather spotters who passed us damage information to supplement
our ground survey.

On the evening of Tuesday July 1, a severe thunderstorm produced 
a brief EF-0 tornado two miles south of Leonardtown, in Beauvue, 
Maryland. The storm had earlier produced a waterspout on Breton 
Bay that was captured on video. The tornado uprooted about 10 
trees along Medleys Neck Road and Cedar Hill Lane. It also 
snapped the tops of 10 trees. Tree damage was oriented in 
different directions. Two trees impacted homes, one fell on a 
vehicle, but no injuries were reported. The tornadic touchdown was
brief, as the storm quickly produced a severe downdraft that 
ended the circulation, and continued to produce scattered tree 
damage along its path east through St. Mary's County. 

The National Weather Service Baltimore/Washington would like to 
thank St. Mary's County Department of Emergency Services, who 
provided invaluable support for this survey, as well as trained 
spotters and the public for providing photos and videos.
