Fire Consumes Hermanville Home
  
Fire at this Whitehall Farm home in Hermanville, just south of the Patuxent River Naval Air Station at Lexington Park, was likely started by lightning from a series of storms which ripped through Maryland, going west to east, from about 3 pm until after midnight.  Tornadoes were down on the ground in Northern Virginia, Charlotte Hall and Chesapeake Beach.   Send your storm photos to staff1@stmarystoday.com
