Storminess subsides, but may re-fire today

The severe storms have cooled down for the evening, after numerous reports of wind damage (the blue dots) and hail (the green dots) in Virginia and North Carolina on this Storm Prediction Center severe reports map for Thursday. (Click here for a look at the entire map, with listings of each report.) There may well be more rain and thunderstorms overnight and into the day, with some potential for strong to severe storms again in the afternoon as the heating builds, particularly from the Blue Ridge eastward. Many locations may also get some much-needed rainfall. While a few spots actually got too much in a short time this week, the overall moisture picture for most of this region is still one of dryness and near-drought.

Cooler, drier weather is still on tap for the weekend and early next week.
