The Storm Prediction Center in Norman, OK has placed most of Virginia in the slight risk area for severe weather this afternoon and evening. Not to say everyone will see severe weather, but the potential is there. At 1PM an area of thunderstorms has developed to our west in WV and extended just into Virginia. Other scattered storms were developing to the NW of Nelson. Look for this activity to increase throughout the afternoon and evening. Right now damaging winds appear to be the main threat.
