Weather Journal

with Kevin Myatt

Finally, some cooler weather -- or at least less warm

We avoided 90 on Thursday in Roanoke, only reaching 87 -- still a full dozen degrees above normal. Bluefield, W.Va., experienced its fifth consecutive day of record high temperatures, reaching 83 after a week of sweltering late September weather.

The cold front that has moved through will carve some numbers off the thermometer for the next several days. We might even see some nights back in the 40s, certainly the low 50s, with highs eventually falling back into the 70s. The long-term look for the next 2-3 weeks is still warm and dry, though.
