The shore will have heavy rain. Our wind will be 15 to 25, winds at the shore 40 to 50. Waves at the bay, one to three. Waves at the shore, three to eight. I n flooding in the metro area.

We have showers and storms on radar marching down to 70 and along the river and back into louden pushing into fairfax. These are heavy storms, pretty good rainfall, not much lightning now.

This is the cold front. Showers and storms ending tonight, bus stop temps are a refreshing 62 to 75. Thats fantastic. A nice finish to the week.
