If only humans looked this graceful running away from a thunderstorm.

A line of intense thunderstorms rolled through the I-95 corridor this evening during the height of rush hour, stranding commuters, tearing down trees and power lines, damaging buildings, and even injuring a few people. After the rain wound down, more than 800,000 customers from D.C. to New Jersey were without power.

Areas south of Baltimore, Maryland got slammed with record-breaking rainfall this afternoon, with some areas just south of the city seeing a foot of rain in just one day. What's even more amazing is that while one town saw twelve inches of rain, areas just a few miles away got just one inch.

Major flooding is ongoing near Baltimore this afternoon after areas south of town have seen more than seven inches of rain in a short period of time, and amounts could approach ten inches before the storms stop. A similar situation unfolded in Detroit last night.
