Beautiful Weekend In Store!


Friday should be a great start to the weekend, with highs breaking above 50 degrees for the first time since the end of January. You may recall that was right before the big snowstorm in Central Virginia occurred the last two days of January. All that old snow pack, plus more new snow in February, and reinforcing shots of colder air in a deep trough over the region much of this month have kept high temperatures down in the 30's and 40's. Before Thursday, the highest temperature this month was 44 degrees, which only occurred twice (the 1st and the 11th). Enjoy the highs around 50 degrees this weekend, as it does appear our pattern will shift back to cooler weather during next week, with the potential for more winter weather by the end of the week.
