HARRISONBURG VA: (Rocktown Now) – It’s jacket time in the Shenandoah Valley, at least for the next couple of days. This applies to most, except those guys you see in the store, wearing shorts when it’s 10 degrees outside! Cool and wet weather will be with us through Thursday. The combination of an upper trough and surface frontal system will move towards the valley and bring multiple rounds of showers and even the chance for a thunderstorm, despite the cool temperatures. Highs today and tomorrow should reach 60, but Wednesday and Thursdays highs will most likely stay in the 50’s.
