Wind Advisory's already in effect for lower Maryland and Virginia Eastern shore thru Tuesday morning.
For today, confidence remains strong for the threat of severe weather this afternoon. Most of Delmarva
remains under a level 3 "Enhanced" threat for severe weather, (on a scale from 0-5, 5 being the highest threat level).
Eastern Sussex, all of Worcester, and Northeastern Accomack counties are currently under a Level 2 threat.
This storm system will bring strong damaging winds, hail, frequent lightning, and tornados are possible. Should a tornado Warning
happen, follow these life-saving steps:

This storm system will bring strong damaging winds, hail, frequent lightning, and tornados are possible. Should a tornado Warning
happen, follow these life-saving steps:
- At Home: Go to a basement, storm cellar, or an interior room on the lowest floor (like a bathroom or closet) away from windows.
- At School or Work: Follow your facility's tornado drill and move to the designated shelter area immediately. Avoid large open rooms like gymnasiums or cafeterias.
- In a Vehicle: Do not try to outrun a tornado. Drive to the closest sturdy shelter. If you cannot reach one, either stay in the car with your seatbelt buckled and head below windows, or lie flat in a nearby ditch and cover your head.
- In a Mobile Home: Abandon it immediately and move to the nearest sturdy building or designated shelter.
I do expect Severe Thunderstorm watches and possible Tornado watches to post around noon.
