Weather Event advisory from Carroll County MD Sheriff’s Office Duty Officer

Weather Event advisory from Lieutenant David P. Stem, Carroll County Sheriff’s Office, Duty Officer


Ladies and Gentleman,

I wanted to take a quick moment to make contact with you the quickest way I could to address the possible tornado that touched down in the Woodbine area of the county. 

At this time, we are unable to confirm that there was a tornado that touched down.  According to our emergency communication center, at approximately 7:15 pm, Doppler radar indicated that a tornado could soon be or was on the ground in the Woodbine area however at this time, we have had no reports of damage that would indicate that is the case. 

There is however major flooding on low lying roadways and we are asking citizens to use caution when traveling on roadways, especially if there is water running across them.  Drivers should never cross or attempt to cross a flooded roadway. 

Sheriff’s units, as available, are responding to flooded roadways.  If there are any other developments in regards to the storm, we will do an official press release.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me, however please be patient as we are extremely busy fielding calls.

Thank you for your ongoing cooperation.

Lieutenant David P. Stem
Carroll County Sheriff’s Office

Duty Officer
