Weather Update - 5:00 PM Saturday
The severe threat has now diminished. A few showers and isolated thunderstorms will persist into early this evening, especially in the southeastern third of the state. Skies will then become partly cloudy later tonight and into tomorrow morning. I'll post the rain totals later tonight.
Weather Update - 12:45 PM Saturday
A line of strong thunderstorms has developed along the Blue Ridge Parkway. These storms are moving east at 25 mph. The air is very unstable ahead of this line, so I'm expecting these to strengthen. A Severe Thunderstorm Watch will probably be issued shortly.

Weather Update - Friday 5:30 PM
Widely scattered thunderstorms continue to develop across the area. The strongest storms will be capable of very heavy rain, frequent lightning, hail and some wind damage (there have been reports of tree damage in southwest and south central Virginia). The activity will slowly diminish once the sun goes down. We are covering storms live on our website at www.wtvr.com/weather. We should see another round of isolated storms on Saturday and Sunday.
