Podcast: It’s going to rain. A lot. Enough to flood, though? We shall see.

The rain is here, and it’s going to get interesting in the Shenandoah Valley and Central Virginia this week, weather-wise.

#TeamAFP’s Chris Graham and Crystal Graham talk about the weather to open the Monday podcast.

Crystal Graham is our resident weather reporter. She has the scoop on what we can expect from the slow-moving storm making its way from the Southeast, with help from the folks at Accuweather.

Also on the show:

  • Crystal updates us on local issues in Waynesboro involving a proposed increase in the meals tax and another project at the old Virginia Metalcrafters
  • Crystal does her best to get Chris in further trouble with the UVA Basketball fan base, getting him to talk about the new hire by Ryan Odom to his staff.
  • UVA Baseball continues its late-season run toward an NCAA Tournament berth.
  • The “what else are we working on” segment includes the latest nonsense from DC involving DOGE not saving us money and Donald Trump taking a bribe, and details on a story that we’re working on about how Albemarle County Police are trying a new approach to dealing with mental health.
