Days and days of ridiculous heat (for this area, anyway -- upper 90s-low 100s) broke for a while today with some mean storms as an upper-level disturbance scooted through, and perhaps a little of Tropical Storm Erin's moisture. I caught up to a strong storm intensifying to severe on the Blue Ridge Parkway just north and east of Roanoke. Got one decent shot below of what may have been some high-based rotation on the storm base. I encountered 50ish gusts at a parkway overlook and came across a tree blown across the parkway a mile from my location. Numerous reports of wind damage to the east. More on my weather blog at Roanoke.com.
