Down in the valley portions of the Blue Ridge temps have been hanging in the middle 30s for much of Friday, but up in the mountains at places like Wintergreen Resort the temps have been in the upper 20s and around 30°. That’s allowed light rain falling to freeze on contact. John Taylor on Devils Knob around 3500 feet sent us this picture above.

The NWS had posted a Winter Weather Advisory for the higher elevations until very early Saturday morning. You can click here to read that advisory.
