Storms Slam Chesterfield County | Richmond News

Chesterfield County braced for chaos as brutal storms slammed the area late Sunday night, sparking house fires and flash floods that shut down roads and overwhelmed emergency crews with over a hundred calls—most weather-related. Eight structure fires, including one from lightning on Hunters Ridge Drive, and ten stalled cars in floodwaters were among the emergencies. Thankfully, no injuries occurred. Roads like Old Hundred Road remained closed Monday morning as water refused to recede—a stark warning: never drive through flooded streets. Cleanup and repairs are underway, but this storm’s power serves as a sobering reminder to stay alert and prepared for Mother Nature’s sudden fury.
