Virginia is getting what is leaving N.C. I thought it would be too cool outside for a thunderstorm, but ...........not. We had high winds and lightning, along with 1-1/2" of rain. The garden was blown over. We won't be able to complain about the ground being too hard to dig, that's for sure. I am going this Thursday. Can't wait....

Another round coming through D.F., If you are south of South Hill it may miss you. We are going to get it in about 20 - 30 minutes

Hey James. It is getting over with here also. No winds, but plenty of rain, lightning and thunder. I think they are really getting it to the East of us.
Glad everything is ok down that way.

Well we received some rain, just over an inch and a half, and some fire works but the hardest stuff seemed to be hitting north of us. Did keep me off the beach this morning though.
