Tornadoes
2 tornadoes have touched down in Sandbridge, a lowlying area of Virginia Beach near the NC state line containing the northernmost of the sounds and barrier islands. A caller on the radio reports considerable damage. The area is in the no go zone, no responders will be sent till after the storm passes.
Tornado warnings a bit ago in Chesapeake, Portsmouth, Suffolk but they have been lifted.
Via 790AM WNIS: Brookridge Apts in Newport News has been stove by a tree. A child is reportedly pinned.
UPDATE: Chid is dead.
Winds are picking up substantially.
350,000 380,000 without power.
Caller on radio reports Blackwater River is flooding the town of Franklin which suffered so much in Floyd.
5 hours till maximum winds. It looks like the dead center will pass right over us. There is expected to be a 7 foot storm surge or greater and will coincide with high tide.
