Storms forming over IN right now.
Seems that another derecho event is possible tonight. 
Probability of damaging thunderstorm winds or wind gusts of 50 knots or higher within 25 miles of a point. Hatched Area: 10% or greater probability of wind gusts 65 knots or greater within 25 miles of a point. Edit - derecho threat seems to be diminished, but there is still potential for severe thunderstorms tonight AND another derecho threat tomorrow. |

Unfortunately, there is likely a lot of trees that didn't fall or lose limbs last night that were still damaged or weakened. Any storms tonight may not have to be as severe to cause more outages due to these weakened trees taking down lines. |

Sky got a little darker, and the wind picked up enough to hear that something was going on outside. I went outside, looked around thought "this should be interesting," and then bam it started blowing 60-70 mph winds for half an hour. |

Really got bizarre here last night.
Turbulent clouds, howling winds, red and yellow flashes in the sky, trees falling down all over, and lots of small debris in the air. At one point it sounded like a freight train rolling in. Thinking tornado, I told the wife, "Downstairs....NOW!" She fumbled around a bit, grabbing her tablet or book or whatever. I said, "Let's GO! MOVE!". When she said "I can't move that fast" I told her she'd better learn to! The weirdest thing was that it got really light out around 10:30. Power was out for 22 hours on the hottest day of the year. Yay... |

As far as NOVA - not tonight. They had theirs last night, so I guess the power crews got a break. Tonight's action is a line along I-64 from Louisa to Hampton Roads. Looks like most of the action moving towards HR now. |
