Thunderstorms, and potentially tornadoes, hit Harford County over the weekend, causing damage throughout the area.
Rick Ayers, deputy manager of emergency operations for the county, said two funnel clouds were reported Sunday evening. The county was under a tornado warning Sunday afternoon, he said, and the department activated sirens to warn residents.
Around 4:42 p.m., he said, a funnel cloud was spotted at Route 22 and Thomas Run Road and around 5:04 p.m., another one was seen at Carsins Run Road and Carvale Drive inAberdeen.
Ayers also said that representatives of the National Weather Service would be surveying Harford County Monday morning to verify if the clouds were tornadoes.
In addition to the funnel clouds, several residents reported downed trees and wires. An Abingdon man, according to Ayers, said that several trees in his backyard were "ripped to shreds." Live wires fell on a shed and it caught fire, also in Abingdon.
A tree was also reported to have fallen on a car, but that was the extent of it, Ayers said.
"There were no reports of significant property damage or injuries," he added.
As of 10:43 a.m. Monday, Baltimore Gas and Electric had restored power to 2,371 customers in Harford County; 339 were still without power, according to its website.
The National Weather Service also received information from the storms on Sunday, according to Meteorologist Carrie Suffern.
Suffern said there were many reports of wind damage, as well as multiple trees down throughout Forest Hill, Pikesville and Street.
Dime-size hail was reported in Belcamp, she said, and high winds uprooted trees and damaged power lines.
Despite the harsh storms, Suffern said Harford County would get a reprieve. High pressure from Canada, she reported, would "help cool and dry off" the county and the National Weather Service is expecting clear skies.
Starting Thursday, however, Suffern said a low pressure system would be moving in throughout the week and could cause scattered showers and thunderstorms.
