McGaheysville, Va. (WHSV) - While tornadoes do happen in our area, it’s much more rare for two to touch down on the same day, let alone in the morning. Tornadoes can happen at any time of the day but they are more likely to touch down in the afternoon or evening during the peak of instability and daytime heating. With these tornadoes in April of 1952, this would have been two different storm cells. *Chief Meteorologist Aubrey Urbanowicz is still looking for help with some details.

(WHSV) - A strong solar storm is expected to impact the Earth with the potential for Aurora viewing in the Mid-Atlantic. The problem is we’re going to have a lot of cloud cover this week. Now solar storms can be extremely difficult to forecast and pinpoint but if it impacts Earth at the right time and it’s a G3 strength or stronger, then the aurora or northern lights could be viewable for Monday night locally. There will be some variability with the expected times.

(WHSV) - The fire weather watch has not been upgraded to a red flag warning for Friday. The National Weather Service decided that wind gusts would not meet criteria, instead they issued an enhanced wildfire threat risk. What this means is that there is still high threat for wildfires, if something were to spark it could get out of control quickly. Especially with wind gusts increasing into Friday afternoon. It’s just that wind gusts will stay closer to 20-25mph at times.
