Spring Snow


With the recent warm spell, it seemed only right that we be hit with one more round of snow. That was the case over the weekend, with record low temperatures in Lynchburg and Danville, and snow across parts of the region.

Take this shot (on right) of the weekend snow in Sylvatus (Carroll County) looking north into Pulaski County. It was sent in by Brooks Lindamood. Carroll county wasn't the only place to see snow. Bluefield in Tazewell county picked up 7 inches of snow according to NWS reports. That more than Roanoke has had in all the winter months combined.

Could we see more? Who knows. A large trough across the west will move east later this week, providing a chance for some rain, and perhaps more mountain snow. We'll have to watch it to see what happens. Hope everyone has a great week.
