Severe storms again wreaked havoc on the Eastern Shore Saturday afternoon. Two tornadoes and several water spouts where reported between Melfa and Quinby. Extremely heavy rainfall brought an unbearable 10 inches of rain to the Eastern Shore. Water spouts were sighted on Finney Creek near Wachapreague, Va.
Car accidents were reported all over Accomack County. Cars had run into ditches, hydroplaned and stalled in high standing water on flooded roads. Boats sank as well during the 4 hour rainfall.
Several reports of downed trees and power lines were given during WESR's live coverage of the storm.
Please continue to practice precaution in the aftermath of the storm as water will take time to recede. It will also take time to clear downed trees and broken down cars.
