statute miles east and west of a line from 15 miles south
southeast of Raleigh North Carolina to 10 miles northeast of
Patuxent River Maryland. For a complete depiction of the watch
see the associated watch outline update (wous64 kwns wou4).
Remember... a Severe Thunderstorm Watch means conditions are
