The National Weather Service has issued a severe thunderstorm watch for the D.C. area until 9 p.m. due to a cold front that could trigger intense storms with strong winds, heavy rain, lightning, and possibly hail. A tornado warning was briefly issued but later canceled. The most intense storms are expected east of Interstate 95, with the primary risks being damaging wind gusts and heavy downpours. The weather is expected to improve by the end of the workweek.
