JARRETTSVILLE, Md. (AP) -  

  Storms that swept through Harford County have left downed trees and power lines after reports of a possible tornado.
 
   The fast-moving storm along the Interstate 83 corridor prompted a tornado warning on Friday night. Emergency workers were called to the Jarrettsville area after residents reported downed damage along a 100-foot-wide path near Salem Church and Cox roads.
 
   The National Weather Service says it's investigating the damage to determine whether a tornado can be confirmed. 
 
   Hundreds of power outages were reported Friday night in Baltimore County, Harford County, Howard County and Baltimore City.
