⚠️ MAJOR FLASH FLOOD THREAT THIS WEEK ⚠️
We are tracking a highly dangerous and moisture-loaded weather pattern locking in over the Mountain State! A stalled system is going to funnel pure tropical moisture directly into our region, acting as a massive fuel source for torrential, slow-moving thunderstorms.
Take a look at the attached map! This shows the projected 7-day rainfall totals across West Virginia. See that highlighted area stretching across the heart of the state, including Charleston, Beckley, Elkins, and Clarksburg? Those deep red and orange shades mean we could easily see 5 to maybe even 6 inches of rain in those zones over the next several days!
Because these storms will be "training"—meaning they will move over the exact same areas repeatedly—our grounds will quickly become saturated. This will cause rapid runoff into creeks, streams, and poor drainage areas.
What you need to do:
Turn ON your weather alerts and keep your phone charged.
NEVER drive through flooded roadways—Turn Around, Don't Drown!
If you live in a flood-prone area, have an evacuation plan ready just in case water rises rapidly.
Stay weather-aware, West Virginia! We'll keep you updated as this high-impact event unfolds.
