Microburst (storm) in Silver Spring, MD 8/12/2010

[@TheRealEvvonne]

I remember this!!! I thought it was a tornado! The lights flickered, then it went black and a sound of a train and then bam! A tree went thru my son's bedroom window. When it was over outside looked like a damn tornado hit, debris and shit everywhere smh. I never been thru anything like that before.

DutchTuna, I was luckily inside the whole time, yes tons of uprooted trees and large fallen branches as well as broken power lines

[@tidal923]

This was definitely a microburst, you can tell from the radar signature - it was awesome!

[@AlexanderBronskyFishing]

[@rino9906]

Really great video makes for a very cozy evening. Fantastic

[@ZenithAstrology]

Do snow next!!

[@sonconmas]

I would really hate to be outside in those gusts... But I suppose it's good flying practice!

[@CVA.Weather]

I would love to be out in that - I'm weird

[@aametriigraham8489]

Wow... Seemed like that storm maintained the hellacious winds longer the usual. The last big wind burst look like a spin-up.. .

[@SuddenUpdraft]

I would hate to be caught outside in that.

[@Avalanche962000]

That is one hail of a storm (pardon the pun)!!!

[@ZenithAstrology]

Ive watches 1000s of weather vids this by far one of the most powerful. I am stressed just watching. I can only imagine and that was cusp of a tornado like.

[@swithinbarclay4797]

So, ANY wind, including Santa Anas, over 35MPH, is ALWAYS a tornado????

[@CVA.Weather]

Wow that's insane... Itm that's in the Bethesda area my grandparents lived up there, I wonder if it was this bad there.

[@guitarest452452]

Wooded areas make storms actually looks scary...

[@ZenithAstrology]

true but this one was 3 very powerful waves and lots of lighting. Didnt let up. Respectable in any eviron.

[@vertoisful]

[@afonsoramosdasilva1165]

[@rethamoore4282]

Cursing does NOT make a great video ! Sorry , this could have been really good. With your talking and cursing , I can't continue to watch . Sorry but you get a thumbs down !!

[@swithinbarclay4797]

I'm NOT sure that you could handle military life, with a Drill Instructor or Superior Officer, screaming this stuff, FULL volume, less than a Centimeter from your ear; never MIND a busted eardrum.

[@heatherstub]

Maybe you could make a video of something like this. Also, after the hail came, she got really quiet. You might actually appreciate the video more if you watched it until the end.
