[Scan-DC] Multiple Tornadoes, Collapse, general alarm Chas. Cty. MD 19:15

Sun, 28 Apr 2002 20:42:58 -0400

Charles County is hard as hell to listen to on the Mobiles.  I used to live
in Calvert County, and couldn't hear a thing on mobile.  Its a Repeater,
allegedly.

Also, an update, the Task Force Cave In units are staging at the Charles
County Courthouse in La Plata.  The "regular" fire units are being asked to
stage at the La Plata Fire Co, on Washington Street.  The courthouse is also
near there.
