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.

Heavy Rain and a Few Thunderstorms Moving into Central Virginia

Latest radar imagery from Doppler Max 6 indicates a large area of heavy rain moving back into central Virginia. A few embedded thunderstorms will be possible, especially across southeast Virginia. Low-level shear will be enhanced as rain bands move onshore in southeast Virginia, increasing the threat for isolated tornadoes.

Tropical Storm Kyle


A disturbance north of Hispaniola has been upgraded to tropical storm Kyle as of 5 PM Thursday. Kyle is moving north at 8 mph, and that direction of movement is expected to continue over the next several days (see forecast track). Kyle could strengthen to a category 1 hurricane this weekend.
