Tornado. At 7:33 AM EDT, an EF-1 tornado came onshore at Plum|Point near Beach Drive approximately 5 miles east of Huntingtown,|MD. The tornado moved west along Shore Drive, uprooting numerous|trees and snapping and twisting others. A large tree halfway|along Shore Drive fell on a house, causing structural damage. The|tornado proceeded to move to the end of Shore Drive and shifted|southwest along Ridge Road causing trees to snap about 20 feet up|and fall in multiple directions. Some trees that were snapped were|a foot and a half in diameter.||The tornado then moved across Plum Point Creek and the grassy wetlands|toward Tobacco Road. A swath of trees had their tops broken off east of|Tobacco Road and fell mainly in a south to west direction.||The tornado then proceeded up Tobacco Road near Tobacco Lane, and|moved northward towards Breezy Point Road. Peak winds in the tornado|were estimated to have reached 90 mph here. Over 30 trees were|uprooted, and some were broken in half. A house had a tree fall on|it along the Tobacco Road area, and windows were blown in on another|house. Tobacco Road had over 10 trees fall westward over the road|along with multiple power poles. A 75 to 100 yard path of tree|damage was observed east of Tobacco Road with trees falling in|multiple directions. The area of Tobacco Road from Pinewood Terrace|to Tobacco Lane became impassable due to the tree and power line|damage, and the Breezy Point area became cut off from the main road.||The tornado moved west after passing Breezy Point Road and caused|numerous trees to fall along Route 261/Bayside Road near Bristol|Drive. A large tree near the intersection of Route 261 and Bristol|Drive fell on a house. The tree damage path was observed up to|50 to 75 feet down the north end of Bristol Drive.||The tornado then crossed MD-261, downing more trees and tearing siding from homes near the intersection of Holbrook Lane and Pleasant Court.
