Wiltshire in Pictures: Sir Keir and Ian Holloway
If variety is the spice of life then this week has been a good one with; footballing celebrations, a VIP visit and a successful cow rescue. Shortly after welcoming back England's victorious Lionesses the Prime Minister dropped into Swindon to announce plans to support small businesses. A cow rescue operation happened in Malmesbury whilst other parts of the town showed off their scarecrows and we have had lots of fantastic weather watcher snaps from across the county. Still smiling: Ian Holloway managed some of his usual chuckles as he faced the media ahead of the start of the new season for Swindon Town. Mixed bag: We have had rain and thunderstorms this week but also glorious patches of sunshine, which helped these stunning sunflowers in Upavon look great. Picture taken by Weather Watcher TAG. Celebration time: The Lionesses prompted wild celebrations at the Steam Railway Co. pub in Swindon as they beat Spain to win Euro 2025 on penalties last Sunday. Eye do: These hay bales, designed to look like newlyweds, were photographed by weather watcher Barnaby Bear. A mooving story: Firefighters from Malmesbury, a technical rescue team from Stratton and a local vet rescued a young cow that had become stuck in a stone culvert. Best of British: Malmesbury's scarecrow competition started on Friday, with this year's theme being 'Best of British'. Derek Tilney, 92, created this fine member of the King's Guard alongside his children Judie and Richard.

EF0 tornado briefly touches down in Annapolis
A waterspout was spotted over Spa Creek in the Eastport neighborhood of Annapolis on Thursday evening. On Friday, the National Weather Service (NWS) confirmed that the waterspout passed briefly as an EF0 tornado over the Severn Sailing Association marina. According to the NWS, a witness watched as the waterspout moved ashore and over the marina, blowing over multiple trailered and small boats in the parking area. Videos from social media captured near the Route 450 bridge showed the tornado spinning from the shoreline to the mouth of the river, moving west to east. It then disappeared before reaching land on the opposite side of the river. No additional damage was reported. A Flash Flood Watch was in effect for most of the Baltimore region, including Howard County, until early Friday morning. Storms brought severe damage to multiple communities. In Mt. Airy, a 13-year-old boy drowned after being swept into an outdoor drainage pipe. Meanwhile, in Harford County, two people were rescued from floodwaters at the Pulaski Highway and Baltimore County line. "Numerous people have been rescued from flood waters as a result. Fortunately, there have been no injuries," the Joppa Magnolia Volunteer Fire Company said. "Do not attempt to drive or cross flooded roads or sidewalks. Turn around, don't drown." Additionally, an ambulance and at least one vehicle crashed in the Joppa area and were leaning on the side of the road on Mountain Road and Greenspring Avenue.
