Chillin' out to ring in the new year

2009 dawns cold. Under full sunshine, it will struggle to make 40 today. 

It doesn't look like an earlier expected precipitation threat will materialize on Friday or Saturday. Early next week, though, things could get interesting, depending on the level of cold air available when a series of weak disturbances and overrunning precipitation arrive.

In the meantime, if you haven't seen it already, take a look back at some of the big weather events of 2008.

Here's to some meteorological blilss for everyone in 2009!

  1. Here's to 2009 and another great year of weather for SW Virginia. We all thank you, Kevin, for putting your heart and soul into your weather reporting, none better anywhere! Had a low of 15 here on Peakwood this New Years Day morning. Had some serious snow showers mid-day yesterday. Keep warm!
