Weather Journal

A cold summer morning

Following the astronomical calendar, it's still summer until a few minutes after midnight Saturday morning ... but some folks in western Virginia saw a bit of summer frost this morning.

The low in Roanoke was 42 degrees. It's not a record for the date, but it is the coldest it has been this early in the season since it dropped to 40 on Sept. 17, 2000.

Blacksburg dropped to at least 37, and I've had one report of 34 there. Let me know if any of you (a) saw frost or (b) had a thermometer that touched the freezing mark, 32 degrees, this morning.
