Severe thunderstorm watch issued for the immediate DC area and points northeast through 4p Thursday. [View all]

Showers and storms passing through northern half of region now (12:15p Thursday)...but high winds are most likely as cold front passes from west to east in next hour, and in the front's wake. Gusts of at least 40 to 50 mph are possible.

Let us know what you're seeing, and we appreciate any reports.
