HARRISONBURG VA: (ROCKTOWN NOW) – When’s it going to snow? Good question! We have a series of low-pressure systems, almost back to back, bringing one form of precipitation or another, between today and next Saturday. After a chance of ice and rain today, temperatures should rise overnight tonight. Sunday, another mild day for February. Monday, another low brings clouds followed by what’s, at least as I’m typing this, looks like a mix for snow, sleet and freezing rain for Tuesday and Tuesday night. After that, Thursday and Saturday will bring two more chances for what, for now, looks like mainly rain.
