Overnight storms down trees, flood roads and knock power across Baltimore region

BALTIMORE -- Severe storms capable of producing a tornado triggered warnings, downed trees, flooded roads and knocked out power to thousands across the Baltimore region overnight. 

The BGE outage map showed that as of 6 a.m., over 1,500 customers were left without power across 113 active outages. That's down from over 15,000 around midnight. 

Odette Ramos, Baltimore City Councilmember of the 14th district, posted pictures to social media of intense flooding in Northeast Baltimore near Lake Montebello. 

The Baltimore Fire Department and Department of Public Works were on the scene, Ramos said. No injuries were reported.  

The city has a planned infrastructure project to fix the flood-prone area, according to Ramos. 

Drivers are urged to use caution as street lights are out in some areas, like the intersection of Druid Park Drive and Greenspring Avenue in Baltimore.

A road is closed and traffic is being redirected after a large tree fell across a road in White Marsh. 

Crews are working to remove the tree at Ebenezer Road and Meyers Lane near Route 40, which is close to Vincent Farm Elementary School. 

No injuries have been reported. 

Most of the rain has cleared out Wednesday morning. Showers and storms pushed west to east overnight leaving behind clouds and more chances of showers in their wake.

A few more showers are possible for the early morning hours, but following this, the area will see skies begin to clear and conditions improve.
