Relatives in the Roanoke Valley of Virginia still have power, fortunately, so we’ve been exchanging email. Also managed to watch one of their television stations, WDBJ-7, on the Web. Their chief meteorologist lives in nearby Fincastle, another town we have an attachment to, and he showed pictures of that little place buried under more than a foot of snow.
Less luck in finding any news on Quicksburg in the Shenandoah Valley where friends live, but they seldom do email and we haven’t tried a landline call yet. Fortunately, the storm is pretty much following Accuweather’s Friday forecast and gradually moving off to the northeast to batter the major cities of the East Coast.
