Northern Neck may see swamp fire smoke

The Northern Neck may see some smoke from a fire burning in the Great Dismal Swamp on the Virginia-North Carolina border, according to the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality. Smoke from the fire, which was ingnited by a lightning strike on  Aug. 4, could reach as far north as Hanover County tonight, says meteorologist Dan Salkovitz, and Westmoreland, Northumberland, Richmond and Lancaster counties tomorrow.  How much depends on the weather.
