Get Ready For The Heat!

Thunderstorms continue to develop between Fredericksburg and Washington DC. Although most rain will remain in this area, an isolated thunderstorm will be possible for the entire area until midnight. Then the chances for rain will quickly drop later tonight.

The center of Ike will move towards Indiana and Ohio tomorrow as it merges with a front.

We will have a strong southerly flow ahead of this storm system. This will allow temps to soar into the mid and possibly upper 90s across the state! To put things into perspective, the record high tomorrow in Richmond is 95, which was set back in 1980.

The heat will not last long...the flow on the backside of this storm will pull in cooler air by Tuesday.
