Annapolis Storm Leaves Thousands Without Power

A ferocious thunderstorm tore through Annapolis, toppling trees onto homes and plunging thousands into darkness. Two families are displaced, crews battled through the night to clear debris, and BGE scrambled to restore power after damaged substations. With sweltering heat making outages worse, Anne Arundel County opened a cooling center to help residents. Neighbors described eerie skies and crashing trees, with one calling the damage along General’s Highway a mini-tornado. Cleanup is underway, and officials urge residents to safely move branches to the curb — community spirit is holding strong as recovery begins.
