The skies (and my basement) appear to be clearing up. I'm still seeing some wind gusts, but everything seems to be getting back to normal.

--Val Cavalheri, 4:35 p.m.

Rain has stopped in Lansdowne. The sun is struggling to peek through!

-- Dave Nemetz, 4:31 p.m.

Skies are starting to brighten up north of the Potomac River, but the rain continues at a steady rate.

-- Dave Nemetz, 4:11 p.m.

Storm seems as if it’s slowing down in Ashburn. Rain is tapering off and there is little wind.

--Erica Garman, 4:01 p.m.

Safety tips courtesy of the Fairfax County Office of Public Affairs:

• Do not drive into flooded areas.
• Do not touch electrical equipment if you are wet or standing in water.
• It is important to remember to keep your headlights on when driving in rain.

If a flood is likely in your area, you should:

• Listen to the radio or television for information.
• Be aware that flash flooding can occur. If there is any possibility of a flash flood, move immediately to higher ground. Do not wait for instructions to move.
• Be aware of streams, drainage channels, canyons, and other areas known to flood suddenly. Flash floods can occur in these areas with or without such typical warnings as rain clouds or heavy rain.

The pond is running over the dam, but no flooding on the course yet. But these pictures may be better. This is where the golf cart path runs under Elk Lick RD on the way from the 10th over to the 11th and the 16th back to the 17th. If you look at img_1777, that’s the path in the bottom right corner. You can see it better on 1778.

Lots of hydroplaning out there. The South Riding golf course is taking quite a beating. Lots of pooled water everywhere. Some dead trees are down and some streets are covered in debris.

My sump pump has stopped working and I now have a totally flooded basement.

Wind is becoming quite a factor here. Combined with the heavy rain coming down horizontally, it's becoming quite interesting. Like Erica, I am watching a very tall dead tree in our neighbor's house, hoping that it survives the storm. Lots of leaves blowing around in the streets.

Have had several reports of minor flooding in basements and some streets becoming impassible. Some of the yards are also flooding.

--Val Cavalheri, 1:52 p.m.

Wind’s picking up in the 20148 zip code, too. I really hope that dead walnut tree in our backyard doesn’t fall on the house.

--Erica Garman, 1:29 p.m.

Correction about the wind - it's picked up all of a sudden here, starting to get some heavy gusts.

--Dave Nemetz, 1:07 p.m.

The rain has been coming down in buckets in the Lansdowne area since about 9:30 a.m., but no wind concerns. I have noticed that water is starting to pool in the lower lying areas, but nothing to be alarmed about just yet. Power has not gone out at all.

--Dave Nemetz, 1:00 p.m.

Just went out onto Ryan Road in Leesburg and the water level is getting high. The roads are beginning to have standing water, even the Greenway.

Winds are really beginning to blow and the rain is coming down in torrents.

South Riding is beginning to experience some substantial flooding in isolated areas as the rain intensifies.

--Val Cavalheri, 11:12 a.m.

Power back in Broadlands.

--Erica Garman, 11:00 a.m.

Heavy rain, No wind. Power just went out in Broadlands.

--Erica Garman, 10:14 a.m.

The rain is coming down moderately here at Cavallo Farm in Leesburg. The skies have gotten progressively darker since about 8:30 this morning.

Last night to get ready for the storm, we left in all of the horses (they usually go out at night) and brought in all chairs, tables and items that could be easily, or not so easily, blown around.

We also shored up our water supply as we are on a well, and if we loose electricity we will not have a way to give the horses water. In addition, we turned off the electricity last night in case of a surge, as barn fires are a farm owners nightmare.

Right now our paddocks are beginning to become saturated with water. We have needed the rain, but this will cause a lot of runoff.

--Marie Bertozzi, 9:38 a.m.

It's been raining steadily for the past half-hour in Ashburn. There is very little wind however, and we have not lost power.

--Charity Corkey, 9:32 a.m.

South Riding woke up to what so far is a much needed rainstorm with no winds.

Hanna did postpone the Business Expo and Community Yard Sale, but apparently not everyone heard about the postponement. I watched cars come by and circle the event area.

Despite tomorrow's scheduled Triathlon, as I rode through the neighborhood, I didn't see many joggers or bikers practicing as the roads do appear a bit slick.

--Val Cavalheri, 9:26 a.m.

No significant issues to report in Lansdowne. Looks like your garden-variety rain overnight.

--Dave Nemetz, 7:30 a.m.
