HARRISONBURG VA: (ROCKTOWN NOW) – After a stretch of sweltering heat and humidity, the Shenandoah Valley is in for a refreshing change—with sunny skies and cooler temperatures this weekend. A robust high-pressure system anchored over the northeastern U.S. will dominate through the weekend before gradually drifting offshore early next week. As the high begins to weaken, a new frontal boundary will start inching northward from the south, setting the stage for evolving weather patterns in the days ahead.
