It’s another sweltering weekend in the D.C. area. However, in the midst of the humidity, pouring rain and storms affected the region on Saturday.
Fairfax County, Virginia, is under a Flood Warning until 1:45 a.m. on Sunday.
The storms and rain caused flooding across the region, including in Vienna and Reston, according to WTOP’s Dave Dildine.
“It’s going to take a while for creeks and streams to go back into their banks,” WTOP Meteorologist Mike Stinneford said. “Some area roadways still have standing water.”
As a result of the severe weather, some in the region are without power.
In Virginia, Dominion Energy is reporting that over 500 customers are without power in Fairfax County. In Maryland, Pepco is reporting that less than 20 customers are in the dark in Montgomery County.
An isolated shower or storm will come before midnight. There will also be areas of dense fog overnight. Temperatures overnight will be in the low to mid-70s.
