HARRISONBURG VA: (Rocktown Now) – Arctic air will continue to impact weather in the Shenandoah Valley through the upcoming weekend with high temperatures only in the teens and low 20’s and lows in the single digits. Overnight wind chills will drop below zero, especially this weekend, when winds will increase with a nearby coastal storm. There’s still some questions about how close to the coast a weekend storm will come. Depending on the exact track could mean a difference between no snow and at least a few inches.
