Blacksburg, VA – Residents across Southwest Virginia can expect a stretch of dry, pleasant weather through the weekend, thanks to high pressure settling over the region.
According to the National Weather Service in Blacksburg, clear skies and a slight warming trend will continue into Saturday. Daytime highs are forecast to range from the low 70s to mid-80s across the region, offering mild conditions for outdoor activities.
Thursday’s forecast calls for highs between 73 and 82 degrees, with Friday reaching 72 to 83 degrees. By Saturday, temperatures are expected to climb slightly, with highs ranging from 74 to 84 degrees. Skies will remain mostly sunny through the period.
