What it was like inside the D.C. tornado on the National Mall

WTOP traffic reporter Dave Dildine explains how he got caught in the tornado Thursday night and describes what he witnessed.

I never thought I would be blindsided by a tornado in downtown Washington, just steps from the Lincoln Memorial.

But Thursday night, I was inside the tornado on the National Mall with a front-row seat to this chaotic, whirlwind performance.

Here’s how it happened, what I did to keep myself safe and what I could have done differently.
