Rain Bypasses Shenandoah Valley As State Sees Light Rain
Most of Virginia received light rain this morning while the Shenandoah Valley saw only sprinkles. National Weather Service forecaster Robert Dickson notes two factors: rain clouds lose moisture before reaching the valley and the Blue Ridge Mountains force air upward, reducing precipitation as clouds cross the range. A 40 percent chance of thundershowers remains for the valley later today, but expected rainfall will not ease drought conditions.
