ROANOKE, Va. – After a weekend of 70s and 80s, the 20s first thing Thursday morning are a rude awakening. For Lynchburg and Southside, it’s record chill.
Contrary to Wednesday, the wind Thursday will be calmer. Afternoon temperatures improve to the upper 40s and low to mid 50s, but nighttime lows drop right back down into the 20s first thing Friday morning.
Friday afternoon will be warmer, but a quick cool-down during the evening will leave you bundled up for some high school football action.
Temperatures drop to about 30 to 35° first thing Saturday morning. We won’t be quite as cold first thing Sunday morning.
Each afternoon sees a rise in temperatures toward the 60s and lower 70s, making for a pleasant weekend.
We need the rain, but it doesn’t look like we see a good soaking between now and next Wednesday.
