Cold front kicking up a few rumblers

Hail of 3/4 inch and slightly larger has been reported in parts of Patrick and Henry counties, the latter of which is under a severe thunderstorm warning until 8:45 p.m. A cold front, bringing a reinforcing shot of cool air to the region, has found just enough instability and moisture to kick off some storms from Southside Virginia south into North Carolina. This won't be indicative of the weather to come, though -- expect a long period of mild and dry weather, with some cool mornings, likely stretching well into next week.
