Rating: EF-0 Estimated Peak Wind: 80 mph Path Length /statute/: 0.1 miles Path Width /maximum/: 75 yards Fatalities: 0 Injuries: 0 Start Date: Jun 18 2025 Start Time: 2:15 PM EDT Start Location: Odenton / Anne Arundel County / MD Start Lat/Lon: 39.059 / -76.701 End Date: Jun 18 2025 End Time: 2:16 PM EDT End Location: Odenton / Anne Arundel County / MD End Lat/Lon: 39.057 / -76.700 Survey Summary: During the early afternoon of Wednesday June 18th, a cluster of severe thunderstorms crossed central Maryland between Washington and Baltimore. One storm briefly produced a tornado in northwestern Anne Arundel County Maryland, in southern Odenton. At 2:15 PM EST, a tornado touched down in the community of Chapel Village, just south of the southern end of Chapel Hill Blvd. There, along the north edge of a water retention pond, it uprooted two trees. It continued southeast and crossed the 800 block of Sunny Chapel Road. Here is where the damage was most intense. Three homes had siding and shingle damage. Behind one of the homes, numerous trees were uprooted and large sections of trees snapped. At least two trees fell onto homes, and one crushed an outdoor deck. Damage on the north side of the path was blown to the south, and damage on the south side of the path was blown to the north-northeast. The tornado proceeded southeast, and crossed the southern cul-de-sac of Golden Chapel Road. There it damaged shingles and siding on three additional homes, blew out the attic window on two homes, and uprooted three more trees and snapped large branches. At this point, after just a minute on the ground and a tenth of a mile path, the tornado lifted at 2:16 PM EDT. A funnel cloud video was shared on social media from Odenton. The ground survey continued to the southeast, but only isolated tree damage was seen sporadically, likely due to the severe thunderstorm wind gusts at times from the parent thunderstorm. The National Weather Service extends its appreciation to the Anne Arundel County Office of Emergency Management and our SKYWARN weather spotters who passed us damage information to supplement our ground survey. && EF Scale: The Enhanced Fujita Scale classifies tornadoes into the following categories: EF0.........65 to 85 mph EF1.........86 to 110 mph EF2.........111 to 135 mph EF3.........136 to 165 mph EF4.........166 to 200 mph EF5.........>200 mph $$
