What the National Weather Service wrote

A powerful storm system off the North Carolina and Virginia coast produced high winds and waves over the James River. One man was killed and three others were treated for hypothermia from the still-cold water when their 16 foot fishing boat capsized in the James River. Effects from the high winds did not extend very far inland.
