The forecast track for Tropical Storm Hanna is shifting away from southwest Virginia.
As of the 11 a.m. Wednesday advisory, the National Hurricane Center now forecasts Hanna to move north-northwest with a potential landfall Saturday morning in northeastern South Carolina or southeastern North Carolina.
The storm is then forecast to make a sharp turn to the northeast, possibly grazing southeast Virginia before moving back to sea.
This moves the storm away from our area. Rainfall forecasts for southwest and central Virginia will be less because of this. It now looks like rainfall late Friday into Saturday will be one inch or less. Wind should not be a factor.
