HARRISONBURG VA: (Rocktown Now) – A frontal boundary, which seems to like hanging around the Virginia/North Carolina border, will wavier over the next 24 hours, increasing the chance for some showers and thunderstorms over the valley. Some area in the valley could see a quarter to one half inch of rain today. Meanwhile, the storm system responsible for devastating flooding in Indiana and other surrounding states, is expected to move north over the Ohio Valley. It looks like the majority of the moisture with this system will stay to the north of the area, but some rain may drop far enough south to bring showers and thunderstorms to our area.
