Good morning RVA: No! more! snow! (mostly)
Temperatures warm up! The sun makes an appearance! We made it!
It’s Valentine’s Day, and it’s currently 33 °F, but today we’re looking at a high of 41 °F! That means no snow! We might even see the sun! Things are really looking up, RVA…at least until tonight when we’re expecting more snow. But fear not Richmonders, this impending snow should be a dusting at most and won’t be a huge deal.
- Chesterfield County, Hanover County, Henrico County, and Richmond City public schools are all closed.
- Which means Monday, President’s Day, will be a regular school day for all four school districts.
- VCU, UR, and VUU are all opening at 10:00 AM today.
- WRIC has a full list of closings and delays
- Roads are a varying degree of wet, snowy, or icy (or all three). With temperatures rising things should clear up throughout the day.
- Gladys Knight’s performance at the Landmark Theatre tonight has been rescheduled for Sunday, February 16th.
Drive safe this morning, and have a great weekend!

Water cooler
Big news last night around 9:00 PM, VA Attorney General Mark Herring announced that a federal court has declared Virginia’s ban on same-sex marriages unconstitutional.
Today is Valentine’s Day. If, for one reason or another, you need last-minute gift ideas try some of these on for size. If you’re looking for dining deals and specials tonight, look no further.
In addition to Valentine’s Day, today is also #RVACoffeeLove day. When you’re at your favorite local coffee shop, buy a cup of coffee for a stranger as an act of kindness and watch the good vibes spread.
VCU visits #12 Saint Louis this Saturday. This game is a Big Deal and will be shown on ESPN2.
