Band of rain and storms splits up

splitradar0730small.gif

The band of rain and thunderstorms that formed earlier today in West Virginia, Kentucky and far Southwest Virginia never really got its act together. It did the old spliteroo, with most of the rain missing the Roanoke and New River valleys. Heavier cells did pass close to Wytheville and through northern Botetourt and southern Rockbridge counties, but nothing extraordinary. Looks like we'll have another shot of thunderstorms on Thursday with a weak cold front, then drier and much hotter weather over the weekend into early next week.
