Thunderstorms will continue to develop across central and southern Virginia. A Tornado Watch is still in effect for southern Virginia until 5 AM. In addition, it is very warm across most of southeastern Virginia (from Petersburg to Norfolk), so I wouldn't be surprised if the watch is extended near that area. Most of the thunderstorms will move east of the area between 5 to 8 AM. Widely scattered showers will persist into Monday afternoon and evening, however, the chances for thunderstorms will be very slim.
One to two inches of rain has already fallen in metro Richmond with heavier amounts to the north and west. We could easily pick up 1 to 2 more inches, so there could be ponding on the roadways for the commute tomorrow morning, so be extra careful. Rivers and streams will also be running high - you can monitor them at the following link:
