Summary
Buckingham County was placed under a flood watch until 7 p.m. Wednesday, with forecasters warning heavy rain could trigger flash flooding.
3-5 inches of rain are possible in some areas as rounds of storms build from about 3 p.m. Monday through Tuesday night, following tropical downpours earlier in the day.
Frequent lightning, strong winds and possible tornadoes—especially Monday afternoon and evening—could also bring down trees, block roads and cause power outages.
Rain is expected to linger across southeast Virginia and Southside counties into Wednesday night, while Richmond is forecast to dry out after sunrise Thursday.
