Severe Storms Possible for Election Day in NC.

Tuesday is now a First Alert Weather Day in central Virginia due to the potential for strong to severe storms from 4 p.m. until just after midnight. The Storm Prediction Center has outlined areas south and west of Richmond in a level 2 out of 5 slight risk, while the rest of central Virginia is in a level 1 out of 5 marginal risk. Strong wind gusts are the greatest risk, along with hail, downpours, and lightning, and an isolated tornado cannot be completely ruled out. It's important to have ways to get a warning even if you are sleeping, such as the NBC12 First Alert weather app with notifications and sound turned on.
