First Alert Weather Day: Storms with lightning/wind possible
We’re watching the potential for a line of strong to severe storms crossing central Virginia today
RICHMOND, Va. (WWBT) - Tuesday is a First Alert Weather Day for strong to severe thunderstorms with damaging wind gusts across central Virginia.
Some good news-- we dont’ expect a severe weather outbreak, even as some downpours and a severe storm is still possible. The Storm Prediction Center has us in the *slight risk* category to include all of central Virginia. That is a 2 out of 5 on the severe weather threat scale.
