Rain, storms threaten sunny Sunday in DC area

WASHINGTON — Enjoy the sun while you can: Storms have begun to threaten from the south, some of which may be severe. 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.
