WHITE MARSH, MD—A dramatic lightning strike was captured on camera in White Marsh on Thursday evening.

The image began to go viral on social media and would seem to show lightning striking the White Marsh Boulevard overpass on Interstate 95 as powerful storms rocked the area.

The storms prompted thunderstorm warnings, tornado warnings, and a flood warning.

At least one confirmed tornado touched down in Anne Arundel County, according to the National Weather Service.
