NORFOLK, Va. — A power outage has impacted thousands of households across Norfolk on Tuesday, according to Dominion's outage map.
Around 7:23 a.m., over 4,800 power outages were reported by Dominion energy. This number has since gone down as crews work to restore power in the area.
Around 7:56: a.m., over 3,000 outages were reported around the Azalea Acres area of Norfolk.
These outages come as heavy rain and strong winds arrive to Hampton Roads.
Meteorologist Myles Henderson says winds will continue to gust to 30+ mph. The persistent NE wind will trigger flooding near times of high tide. The biggest tidal flooding threat will be near high tide this evening (6 pm).
