\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

For Thursday, storms may again start early across the region and move swiftly southeastward through the mid-Atlantic. <\/p>\n

\"DCT<\/p>\n

These storms are again situated around rush hour, so take precautions on the trip home. <\/p>\n

This time, the threat will be focused more on Washington D.C. and Richmond, Virginia as well as Pittsburgh and Columbus, Ohio. <\/p>\n

By Friday, the threat will be highest over the Virginias and North Carolina. <\/p>\n

Flood threat?<\/p>\n

Days of rain and storms also bring the threat of flooding. While there are no flood watches in effect at this time, multiple days of heavy rainfall are possible. Rainfall totals of 1-3 inches are possible for multiple days, so the threat of isolated and urban flooding is not out of the question. These totals could be increased in the coming days as the forecast lines up. <\/p>\n
