As Aaron mentioned yesterday, conditions are favorable for strong to potentially severe thunderstorms this evening and overnight in Central Virginia. A broad upper trough is approaching the East Coast today, with a strong surface cold front tracking east with showers and thunderstorms along and ahead of this front. Early Thursday morning, the cold front is tracking through central Kentucky, Tennessee, and Alabama. Once this front reaches western Virginia this evening, rain will start out west by 6 p.m. and reach areas east of I-95 by 11 p.m. A squall line will likely develop with frequent lightning, strong wind gusts, heavy rainfall, and potentially some hail. The risk for tornadoes is extremely low, but an isolated spinup could occur.
