Thankfully that stayed towards the liberal tip of VA. Saw a little wind/rain in the south but NVA got hit hard.
NVA, about 7 miles west of DC. Definitely some sort of tornado effect. Some crazy sonic-like booms, unlike normal thunder. The whole house shook. Tree branches down. Power line to the house is laying in the street, although we still have power for the house. Ironic that the county is moving our power lines underground. They've already been dug and installed underground and scheduled to be switched over in a couple weeks..
I'm a little further out (Prince William County mid county area) and it was pretty intense here. Could not see the house behind me thru the rain. I live in a new-ish neighborhood and so no power loss but lights flickered enough to shut down computer. I haven't seen any severe damage but lots of small limbs down.
