light rain and drizzle across the area. there is no heavy rain. the flood threat has really diminished during the afternoon and moderate rain all afternoon and now seeing that light rain around the region, even where it's not picking up the rain around waldorf we're still seeing drizzle. zoom in and look at the latest picture from annapolis to d.c. and leesburg and warrington reporting that light rain. that will continue for the most part overnight tonight. the wider view so showing what's going onto the south, look at the intense rainfall to the caroli carolinas. this is a major problem, talking 10 to 15 inches to the caroli carolinas. for us, this is what we're waiting on towards norfolk and ocean city seeing heavier rain will move in overnight. what about the winds, winds g t gusting at 30 miles an hour, 26 in annapolis, 20 at camp springs. and 33 at the river. ocean city, 40 miles an hour

as you mentioned, gusts at 50 miles an hour. earlier today out on the boardwalk, the wind was swirling around and the ferris wheel is getting pushed along by mother nature's wind alone. that's pretty high winds for the weight of that ferris wheel. if there was any good news, temperatures top out in the 70s tomorrow. we'll still have some drizzle. >> all right. veronica johnson for us in ocean city, noisy ocean city. most of the flooding is happening along coastlines, creeks and rivers and streams. look at these pictures from st. mary's county. that water is 3-5 feet higher than normal. check out this in alex sandria old town. in the last half hour, the tide has been rolling in and some streets under water now. jackie bensen is right in the middle of it.

>> reporter: i am right in the middle of it. we're at the foot of king street at the strand. this is tidal flooding. they are very used to it. i want to show you what's going on behind us over here. the thai restaurant there, they have it so down, you can see the sandbags in front. they actually completed their dinner service, closed, managed to get everyone out of there, they moved their cars, like clockwork because this happens so often. around alexandria earlier tonight we got some pictures of the sandbags that have been put out. they've been put in place just in case this happened this evening, the sandbags give people a little extra margin of what they want to avoid, which is the flooding inside. most of these businesses here have cement floors and basements if they have them that clean up very easily. they are very much used to this. it has absolutely no effect on business. people come down to see it around virginia tonight.

we were in arlington earlier where a tree crashed onto the back of a home, a very large tree. luckily it just hit the porch of the home and didn't break the roof or main body of the house. everybody was okay and that is certainly a big relief for those folks. they will be dealing with the damage of that for a while. what we saw throughout northern virginia tonight, mostly just rain. as you all described, about 10:30, high tide came in with a rush, up over the curve here on king street and it will go right back out when the tide leaves. live in alexandria. news4. >> be safe get back. neighbors to the south already under water and more is yet to come for them. low-lying areas in coastal virginia, like norfolk and yorktown have seen up to a foot of floodwater today swamping a lot of cars. check out charleston, south carolina, the water there, thigh
