So what explains the big swings in the non-NOVA parts of the state: Richmond, Va Beach, Norfolk, etc?

Very good question. That is one thing I really wasn't expecting. And black turnout really can't explain all of it.

The same metro appeal thing that Obama had nationwide.

Yeah I suppose so. I think one of the reasons I didn't think Obama would do as well is because of the many military installations there. Of course Obama didn't do bad at all among the military.( for a democrat)

The military personnel don't vote at the bases.
