It was ten years ago when Floyd moved through the region and flooded Franklin and other cities in Virginia.  Parts of Hampton Roads received 17″ of rain.  It’s estimated that more fell in the Franklin area.  Reporter Jason Marks did a story on the storm.  Here’s the link: Floyd 

  I’m sure many people have some interesting stories to tell from that event.  Here’s another site that explains the overall impacts.  It’s neat because it also has a list of historical Virginia Hurricanes.  Some that go back as far as the 1500’s.  Here’s the link for that: Floyd Impacts and historical storms

Locally, we have some scattered showers and storms this evening.  A few spotty showers are possible tomorrow and Friday.  The weekend looks good, but rain will be close to the area and the forecast is on the edge of having a few showers.  So stay tuned.
