Central Virginia Blue Ridge

For the second time in five days torrential rains have fallen across the area taking our culverts, blocking roads, downing tree and causing power outages.One of the first photos we got in Sunday morning was from Dark Hollow Road in South Nelson County. About 3/4 of a mile of off the East Branch Loop side the road has been completely washed out after culverts were blown out from the massive rains.


More of the photos above by Regina Allen Campbell of the damage on Dark Hollow Road in South Nelson County.


Above, the line of storms that caused massive flooding in Nelson & Albemarle Saturday night.

If last night wasn’t bad enough, we do have the chance for more heavy weather today.

We’ll be keeping an eye on everything today and updating as we can. We appreciate your reports and send any info along that you have on road conditions, etc.
