Weather Service keeps special watch on the Key Bridge to help the collapse response effort

Conditions were calm and clear Monday morning, when several tugboats finally pulled the Dali container ship from where it struck the Francis Scott Key Bridge, destroying the span March 26, and moved it back to the Port of Baltimore. The weather was a stroke of good luck, after rainy and stormy conditions twice delayed the coordinated explosions that largely freed the ship from the bridge piece pinning it in the Patapsco River.
