HARRISONBURG VA: (Rocktown Now) – An area of high pressure will keep skies clear and sunny today and help the Nor’easter off the coast away from the valley. Temperatures will stay in the 60’s each day and near 40 at night. It’s looking like the only impact we may see from the low will be an increase in winds today. The ridge of high pressure is expected to move north and west of the low, helping keep the low out to see and pretty much eliminating any chance for rain, even along the coast. Sunshine is expected to continue into the upcoming weekend.
