Transcript:
Charles Fishburne: Governor Northam declared a state of emergency late yesterday, to ensure assistance is available if needed and he encouraged Virginians to take all necessary precautions.
Mike Montefusco, National Weather Service, Wakefield
Montefusco: At this point we are looking for the potential for four to six inches across eastern Virginia, especially.
Fishburne: And gusty winds. As for Central Virginia:
Montefusco: There is going to be a very tight gradient likely with respect to the rainfall across our area. At this point we are looking for an inch or two of rainfall across the I-95 corridor potentially, just to the east. West of 95 it will likely be more sparse, I should say.
Fishburne: The track could change, along with the forecast. Stay tuned for updates. Charles Fishburne VPM News
