Severe Storms-Microburst-Flooding-Close Lightning

#1 Postby vacanechaser » Fri Jul 25, 2008 8:47 pm

had some really good storms move through southeast virginia wednesday afternoon.. high dew points and temps in the upper 90's for a few days lead to some rough weather.. storms moved in from the south and into portsmouth around 3pm or a little after. first line of storms caused what appears to be a microburst with winds nearing 60-70mph i would guess... had some street flooding with a car stalled out due to driving through it and then the second line moved in from the south... this time not as strong, but close lightning heavy rains and some gusty winds were coming into chesapeake... hope you enjoy..
