Flash Flood Warning including Vansant VA and Mavisdale VA until 9:30 PM EDT

The Flood Watch for Flash Flooding has been trimmed further as the threat continues to shift south. With soggy soils from the recent rain, heavier showers or almost any thunderstorm could lead to local Flash Flooding this afternoon into this evening across the south. #WVWx #VAWx

Overall, the heavy rainfall shifts south today, but southwest VA and southern WV will still remain under the gun once again. A flash flood watch is in effect until 8 PM tonight for counties where the highest confidence for flooding will be. #WVWX #kywx #OHwx #vawx

A Flash Flood Watch remains In Effect overnight into Monday for southern portions of the area, as the strong, heavy thunderstorm threat shifts south. While strong to damaging wind are still possible, the main hazard is a continued risk of flash flooding. #WVWx #OHWx #KYWx #VAWx
