“It’s scary,” said Ryan Hearty, a student taking a summer course.聽“I guess it’s something that every college campus has to watch out for. I’ll probably just be a little more aware.”

WASHINGTON 鈥� Many聽who were watching PBS鈥檚 broadcast of 鈥淎 Capitol Fourth” noticed something was a little “off” when they aired footage of the fireworks show in the nation’s capital showing clear skies.

The rain took its toll on Fourth of July fireworks plans around the nation鈥檚 capital , but the National Mall fireworks show still went on as scheduled.

Clouds made for poor visibility for those watching the fireworks show in the District, which caused some confusion for viewers at home when PBS showed clear skies for the show during its live broadcast.

did just use stock footage of fireworks from the past couple of years here in DC for their live broadcast?

鈥� Michelle Basch (@mbasch海角精品黑料)

Because of the cloudy DC weather, It looks like PBS used stock footage of clear night fireworks 鈥� jonwarner (@jonwarner海角精品黑料)

Many users on Twitter, some using the hashtag, pointed out other errors like the missing scaffolding from the U.S. Capitol dome.

I think you live in another Washington DC… Mine has low hanging clouds and i can’t see much fireworks… 鈥� Grumpee Mike (@grumpee_mike)

I know it’s cloudy, but it’s a travesty not showing the real DC fireworks 鈥� Jody (@roaminrn)

Happy , America! Sincerely, (your stock fireworks footage news outlet). 鈥� Chauna (@chauna_eliz)

Old fireworks footage on when the clouds vanish, and so does the Capitol scaffolding. 鈥� Carl Bliss (@ckbliss)

Totally faked fireworks. No scaffolding on Capitol & not cloud in the sky. Much different here in 鈥� Andrew Roszak (@AndyRoszak)

PBS responded with the following tweet:

We showed a combination of the best fireworks from this year and previous years. It was the patriotic thing to do.

Matt Elliott, a NWS meteorologist, tells 海角精品黑料 that the “high-end EF0” tornado touched down聽at 1:29 p.m. and lifted at 1:48 p.m.

“Anything more than 10 minutes, especially for around here, is a fairly long time for a tornado to last,” Elliott said.

In those nearly 20 minutes, the tornado traveled 12.75聽miles, traveling across the聽western and central portions聽of the county.

“Most of our tornadoes here are quick spinups, so it is rare for it to have a somewhat long track in terms of 10 miles or so,” Elliott said. “It’s not something that happens very often.”

The tornado had winds of up to 80 mph with a path width of 500 yards.

According to the NWS, the initial touchdown occurred聽near the intersection of聽Old Annapolis Road and St. Michaels Road, just southwest of Lisbon. Properties there sustained tree damage with multiple聽trees snapped, uprooted and topped in multiple directions.聽A large聽garage had its doors bowed by the wind聽and small objects were lifted, the NWS says.

The tornado continued toward the southeast, passing through the聽areas of Glenwood and Glenelg, before lifting just before Ellicott聽City in the vicinity of Manor Lane and Carroll Mill Road.

Elliott says the tornado caused mainly tree damage and very little structural damage.

The Howard County Public School System says in a statement that聽there will聽be no summer school at Howard High School on Wednesday due to a power outage. Classes at Oakland Mills High School and the Applications and Research Lab will open on time.

Seven other county school buildings —聽Glenelg High School, Marriotts Ridge High School, West Friendship Elementary School, Manor Woods Elementary School, Triadelphia Ridge Elementary School, Swansfield Elementary School and Rockburn Elementary School — were also without power, the school system says, and camps at locations without power were canceled.
