Couple days of sun, couple days of rain, some wind, alternating cool and warm temperatures…yep, sounds like spring in Virginia! Today’s showers will morph into a couple of sunny days with highs in the 60’s, then more rain will enter the picture on T…
This video, sped up 4 times, shows the rain free base I was observing yesterday from a position just off Rte 29 south in northern Madison county. Note the cloud motions in the foreground (left to right) versus the almost static features in the backgro…

It’s that time of year again – All-Area sportraits! Every season after herding high school kids cats and hauling a bunch of gear to various high schools around the area I swear I am not doing the next one.
