  • Another cold night
  • Freezing rain possible early in the mountains
  • Rainy Sunday, followed by another shot of cold air

THIS WEEKEND

TONIGHT: It’ll be another cold night, but nowhere near as cold as it was Saturday morning. Lows will once again fall below freezing area-wide with most areas in the 20s. Clouds will gradually return overnight.

SUNDAY: On Sunday, our next front approaches. We could see some pockets of light frozen precipitation Sunday morning in the Highlands and Greenbrier Valley and areas along the Interstate 64 corridor. Showers will move in mid to late morning in these locations. By the afternoon, the main line of rain moves through and lingers into the evening. Everyone gets soaked with the Sunday front. Totals should reach .50″ to 1″ around the region before rain tapers off.
