It just cruised through Scottsville. Apparently a lot of the rain in Nelson County washed through the Rockfish, entering the James below Balcony but above Scottsville.

The James peaked sharply at about 4,000 cfs there. I have no idea what that will look like by the time it hits Richmond but am guessing it will be an improvement.

4.5 or so aint hiwattah but it sure as hell is an improvement over 3.7

tomorrow is the day I expect this will drop out like a stone as fast as it rises.

I would have expected the curve to flatten out more on the graph.
