The last 24 hours has been devastating for parts of Virginia as well as many other States. This storm system has produced tornadoes and heavy rain. As of this morning, the National Weather Service in Wakefield is predicting that the river will crest at 14.8 feet. This crest is very similar to the one that we experienced earlier this year. At 14.8 feet the river should not come onto the golf course. We will see internal flooding and the bridges at 17 and 15 may be under water. The river will be rising very quickly over the next 24 hours so please, be very careful around water features. We dodged a huge bullet by avoiding a tornado. I hope the National Weather Service is correct and we will dodge another tomorrow with the James staying in its banks. I will frequently update Twitter and the blog concerning the river level.
