What's the Weather Like in Early February in Richmond?

Good luck answering that question the next time family or friends decide to plan a visit to the Commonwealth a few months in advance. There has probably never been a better example of how different a day can be from one year to the next than what we have seen on February 5th the past two years. The high temperature today in Richmond never got above freezing, only making it to 29 degrees. Last year on this exact date, we set a record high of 76 degrees! So you never quite know what to expect this time of year. Safe to say, a weekend of temperatures in the 60s will be a welcome change.

Cold For National Weather Person's Day

I had completely forgot until I heard it on the CBS Early Show when Harry Smith wished Dave Price happy Weather Person's Day! I have to admit, I wish it wasn't in the winter...it's too cold!

Speaking of cold, most areas started today with temperatures in the teens! It looks like we will have another chilly morning for tomorrow as well. If you don't like the cold weather - like yours truly - then you will like this weekend. Warmer air is headed this way, so be patient!
