Strong Storms Prompt Tornado Warnings

Showers and a few thunderstorms continued this afternoon, and a few of these storms had short-lived, but significant rotation. Tornado warnings were issued with one area of storms for Southampton, Sussex, Surry, and Prince George counties. This picture was sent to us by a CBS 6 viewer as the storm moved over HWY 460 near Wakefield.

Rainfall Amounts

Rainfall amounts have been pretty impressive across the region. Many locations picked up between 2-3 inches. Andrew Mahaney reported 2.05" in Short Pump overnight. Dabney Oakley reported 2.50" near Tuckahoe Elementary School in the West End.

Heavy Rain Effect

A south Richmond homeowner sent in a photo of the flooding in her neighborhood. The photo really captures the power of a storm system. Tune into CBS 6 for the entire story. Please send us your photos of any storm damage.

Rain Continues

You have probably noticed that we are not on the air right now. We are experiencing technical difficulties due to the recent storms.
Meanwhile, I am still tracking some rain on DopplerMax 6. There are pockets of heavy rainfall over Caroline, Hanover and New Kent counties. The good news there are no thunderstorms around the region.
Be careful on the roadways and be on the lookout for areas of ponding.
