Rain Totals Keep Climbing

Highest rain totals so far have been in western Amelia County and Prince Edward County, where almost an inch of rain has already fallen. Isolated thunderstorms have also popped up near Virginia Beach. The best chances for thunderstorms will continue to be in the southeast corner of the state.

Here is a map of real-time stream flow across the state. The orange and red dots represent streams/rivers with below normal flow. Green or blue dots show streams/rivers that are average or above average.



Right now the streams are running very low because of a recent dry spell. Rain totals from this storm should range from 1 to 3", so this will definitely change later tonight!
