Overnight storms bring damage, some heat relief

 

BGE said it is working to restore power to an estimated 10,000 people after Thursday's thunderstorms. More than 53,000 people total had lost power. UPDATE: We'll be posting storm updates here.

The rain has brought some relief to this week's heat wave.  Today's high is forecast to be 92, but with a dewpoint of 67 degrees, it will still be muggy. There's a 30 percent chance of showers later this afternoon, according to the National Weather Service.

Trees were spotted down on Charles Street near Cathedral Mary Our Queen (pictured). Anyone else spot any damage? Tell us in the comments.

My tomato plant was uncermoniously knocked over. Thankfully it's still young enough to be bendy and didn't snap.
