Velocity and see if thats where it is indeed its almost exactly there we have two different areas one here over grafton and another one back here to the east out over the water so i wouldnt even doubt we have a funnel cloud out there north east of the coasts and take all this off of here for you go back and get the root of the watches and the warning filled make it a little easier to see and write e im here we have a little bit of a gap in the green area and then another sort of gap right in there so those are the two areas right now that were most concerned with about the possible tornadoes and they are working their way to the north and the isa for watching us from again red hill village or mention zeller downpour back river southern newport news youre out of the woods for now the twin attic cellar possible traumatic cell has moved to the north. I also like the fact that this is again in terms of the rotation n goes from being broad about seven miles long which is more of a Straight Line wind damage type of this scenario to being tied or wrapped up and then it goes back to being elongated again as the cell sort of pulses and now over the water because theres less friction over water the odds are much much higher that we have at least a if not a tornado at least a funnel cloud or a water spout over the water theyre heading toward areas me of gloucester and mathews around mary s and dave on it will very very shortly be on top of you over mob jack day its really heading almost directly for mob jack day and in another five minutes or so will be up exiting mob jack day and heading over the communities of beaver let dave on an upward hudgens and quinns island so thats the Tornado Warning that we have in effect right now it around graft and then lift your right on the water its probably a little tiny tiny bit here is the one we had over the norfolk area is now is still showing signs of a water spout a rotation but that would be out over the Chesapeake Bay bridge tunnel around the Second Island lets say. So again things right now definitely still active across the Northern Neck and really the middle peninsula winding down a tiny bit here in the immediate downtown in norfolk and sort of seven cities area. But then we have this big line of storms out the west once again so guys thats the very latest on the throw back to you from it will of course have a lot more on how long thisll last coming up a few minutes i think we will stay on top of the situational evening and we mention we talked about schools letting out right now a number of schools systems were keeping the kids inside untill the warning expired hampton that was one of the citys doing that the kids have are still in Hampton Police reporting a tree down at mercury in aberdeen. Why doesnt take much for the usual areas to flood all around downtown or for the second hour with christinas vertigo who was near the hay well and really the flooding is not the big concerns here at the event at the hating and c actually things are pretty good but the wind the wind is really what city crews city officials had been really worried about him here is why with how saturated the ground has been and how strong the winds that weve been seeing has been the concern is that the power lines in the trees could come down of course that could cause many Power Outages and reaping a picture of what weve been seeing out here in the near downtown norfolk. Within a couple of bursts of rain come down in those very strong winds and that is exactly want everyone to prepare now are less junk in our thirteen news meteorologist craig waller creek was a situation where you are guys right now we just pulled over off of victory boulevard in fort smith i wanted to get a chance to see some of the water that something coming down theres a lot of water here and im noticing some pondering on the roads around for that to continue to be an issue at hand off the camera by photographer nate and let him good pull some of this or get a good look. Basically what weve been watching again the clouds moving we were under that sell out something with that rotation but that stuff is moving so incredibly quickly. Then again it was a heartbeat over the western side of portsmouth moving towards norfolk that was one that they had the warning on it or continue to watch as we are also watching some Additional Development downs in northeast North Carolina so going to put ourselves in a position it looks like round of Severe Weather with some developing cells that are right now just showing signs of intensification to run to watch that adjustment keep you updated on the ones farther north up the peninsula but you can get in a situation where you start chasing him and you never catch him so what were doing out here with the weather lab the mobile weather labs were getting into position to kind of catch the storms as theyre developing run to continue to do that right now said becky jeff hardy trade were starting to get some pictures and hear a couple through social media we just got one incredible picture of a car flipped upside down by the wind that takes a heck of a win to flip a car completely upside down that was in the community of waverly out in isle of wight county al to again long for sixty of those of you ever taken a back way up the rich on for sixty know where were talking about and were comforting right now to get that on the air a leash actually i can see over there or has it on the ears were going to get her just the second mean all very quickly sector shows you came through whether they were porn addict or not we dont know yet will have to go out but as i mentioned earlier it doesnt matter if its in the mall proper win from a tornado or an eighty mile per hour wind from Straight Line wind its going to do the same kind of damage to your home your car whatever structure you were and so thats why we have then again so worried about the system for the past couple of days to come swinging through the area. So right now if youre watching from the pencil youre still under the Tornado Warning we can cancel it for you as i just mention completely gone from your area still around. Extreme extreme eastern sections of Mathews County around the community of achilles. Youre still pretty much right close to where this possible tornado is located. That is moving to the north so what were most concerned with now is the storm moves up in them object they will be the communities of from babe on the beaver let the hutch with two twenty three logo is in the top of your screen that is the area that certainly theres a funnel cloud out there. We know we have some very very strong winds this is a look at d i know thats not shown a whole lot right now all the different colors just quickly show you the wind shear and see what kind of wish your were getting with this storm thats down a little bit but again with less friction over water that still going to be some significant winds that are coming onshore shown thirty some Miles Per Hour so watch that but whatever toy he should because i just saw she had that oh no we got two of the anchors ok back to the actors are based elsewhere keeping an eye and situations all over captain rose were sending a crew to Sussex Waverly area c was going on there were also keeping an eye on traffic conditions. Then earlier today that went into protection mode lets go over to ashley smith to find out about traffic and very busy on the Traffic Network maps i do want to start with a years now Traffic Cameras because were watching the interstates as well a lot of the traffic issues are off the interstate we do have one we will see very heavy traffic headed for the monitor merrimack. It was an accident that stopped traffic for quite awhile six sixty four south was shot in newport news you can see things are moving now but we have about a three day three and a half mile back up making its way to the monitor merrimack the hr bt headed to the south sides back of two and a half miles. Jeremy is not that it didnt go over to the port of newport news and had isle of wight county but of course weve been watching isle of wight county very very closely as well with a lot of activity going on out there and back to the Traffic Network maps will talk about some issues we have discussed here and some we have not so we did talk about the issue that just popped up in hampton. Mercury blvd in aberdeen we have that down the tree right now so if youre in that area expect very heavy traffic or use cunningham and todd instead and also when you had to begin way really. Another issue are falling out there for sixty forty. Still shut there and downed power lines as well to let them back to the death now of course we will be a big issue but several spots further out west. Big issues as well guys with power lines down you always and soon both lines are dry and this just in one of those lanes have reopened route forty at four sixty in waverly but obviously there are some problems there were getting some reports of damage and alicia has more on that. Did you forget a lot of you are pictures coming and you can share yours as well by using the hashtag thirteen storm and of course when its safe to do so now that picture that jeff was talking about just a little while ago here it is right here this is a car that overturned that he was mentioning you can see some of that damage out there with those downed trees and power lines that were saying heres another image of that same area from isle of wight news and weather of course well have more pictures to update you with as they come in now to see some of these tweets a lot of authorities around Hampton Roads the first place theyre going city of Virginia Beach we did some fun facts about what you mean can we now and what you need to do during the event of a tornado. Weve got another tweet coming in from the Virginia Department of Emergency Management services theyre saying you know to keep in touch with them and follow them on twitter as well weve got schools updating their twitter feeds obviously we know a lot of them have dismissed early for the day city of hampton so no really twitter is the best place to go for all this information and will continue to keep you updated on their back to the desk shot jeff lawson will tell you that in order to confirm whether its a tornado or Straight Lines actually have to go down on the ground and take a look at the damage right now along the focus is on the town of waverly. All right jess. Yet as weve been talking about for years really of what we want to emphasize thats why we say when a storm like this comes through it doesnt matter whether its a tornado or whether its Straight Line winds of eighty or ninety ball prowess down burst winds its going to do the same does so thats why things again or so so important that you take cover in a situation like this let me assure you a couple of things going on here first the entire area and talking about it for couple of days that was likely we would get under a tornado watch today or at least near us we are indeed under that watch until nine pm and what a watch means is simply watch out some think would form not will form but its a very distinct possibility. They put that out ahead of any storms forming we had that out from just after the lunch hour through nine pm now that we started seeing things forming thats when we get the warning so as you can see this entire purple area that extends all the way down to the outer banks. Everybody in eastern virginia eastern North Carolina maryland for that matter the Eastern Shore anyway under a tornado watch now that we can get rid of those because that simply means something might try to see we have a huge um im not sure i remember in a long long long time this many warnings back to back to back to back to back up the line from south and west of raleigh up through the door i mean its literally every county almost every community as you head up there from south of raleigh. All the way through charlottesville is under a Tornado Warning right now. In addition course the tornado watch so were going to really really have to be on top of that line will take a few hours to get here but that is our biggest concern at this point. Once we get rid of whats out there right now and the only area left that has any kind of a warning in our immediate vicinity is over. Matthews it covers almost the entirety of matthews and it is a Tornado Warning around newport New Point Comfort highway back up toward bethel beach road over breeze road the community of hutchinson moon in beaver let if there is a tornado right now it would be very close it looks like a beaver lead over port perry. Its going to condemn object is going to continue to work its way to the north from their supper watching from those locations gwens island need to be taking cover now. Evan i understand yes more information. Ok jeff we are watching that storm up in Mathews County of course and other one has as you mentioned has been canceled for the coasts and in gloucester and new york. So really its that storm up in Mathews County right now watching that is moving to the north east around at Beaver Lake Community as you mentioned jeff around a tabernacle moon and up towards quinn island an island technically not under that warning this storm is going to be moving out into the Chesapeake Bay here pretty quickly. Watch as it crosses over the bay for aca my county but you also towards the west were getting some sunshine out there right now that is of destabilize the atmosphere to the next line that is out west just a line of watches and warnings all the way from charlottesville to farmville south boston on the durham downpour to raleigh so were going to get a break here for a little bit but that sunshine breaking through the clouds not a good thing because then next line as it moves eastward could run into that warmer air where the sunshine has come out and will be watching that line very closely will be several hours before makes its way off towards these but as the next area of concern i think seven once again to reiterate we do have some thunderstorms affecting the term live lightning tracker on if youre watching us for the Eastern Shore youre saying what about us well you have a thunderstorm over your head and some heavy downpours you do not have anything at this point that looks for an attic that whehe attic thunderstorm or potential to an attic thunderstorm certainly one with very strong and gusty winds is right now directly over Mathews County and moving pretty quickly to five mph so right now if we measure the distance here from the south to the north end of the county. Its around ten miles at the mo so ten miles at fifty s some ill miss sixty mph. Its going to take ten minutes and so certainly within the next ten minutes will be able to give the all clear to almost all of areas there of Mathews County except for maybe when silent letter twelve minutes from now will be able to do that again just to reiterate is that storm moves out now are getting some of the sunshine breaking through we are going to see much more stable conditions in the very short term look at that line out to the west its just a tremendous line of showers and thunderstorms with an incredible amount of lightning actually let me check the lightning on the Tsongas Center this up a little bit just to show you how impressive this line is and as we put the war live as i expected actually. Six hundred strikes here in the last oh fifteen minutes or so but while i can see that that line of Tornado Warnings extends even farther to the south so we can take that off there take the lightning tracker off for you at one point a few minutes ago i was tracking nine Tornado Warnings that were al along this line i see one two three four five hour down to six six Tornado Warnings and a couple of severe thunderstorm warnings with that western line song actually go here just really quickly to the satellite presentation and turn that on instead because i think thatll give you a little bit of a broader view of what is going on youll be able to see. Look at all the tornado watches a course that were out and then you can see is they move through. Now were getting the breaks were getting the sunshine here al disappearing through ahead of this next line and its that line extending right down the middle of your screen from charlottesville down to halfway between richmond and roanoke it down to just west of raleigh that one is slated to come through here again in the next. O lets get its been moving i want to do this lets take it back for hours or so so right now is it for fifteen will take it back to one fifteen and get three hours worth. So here we go where it was three hours ago this night after going to have to interrupt we have some breaking news we have just confirmed with game and inland fisheries that two people have died in the town of waverly. There are concerns about the wellbeing of the third person a possible third fatality and possibly one of the fatalities could be a child that we have not confirmed at this point but are dead possible touchdown of the tornado and this is our coming in from the department of game and inland fisheries a little bit earlier we were looking at some of the damage from waverly we know backed out there been some roads closed because of downed power lines as well as downed trees root for fisk sixty at forty closed again because of some problems they had closed it in the open one lane in the closed it again just moments ago. Lets go over to on a leash on who has up some pictures of some of the damage in waverly and lisa and
