Headlines over the next couple of days.

ROANOKE, Va. – Saturday’s forecast calls for temperatures in the upper 80s for most of us, some will reach 90°. Partly cloudy skies are expected to build in through the course of the day. We aren’t expecting any rain Saturday, however, there is a very low chance to see a stray pop up shower that may last a few minutes later on Saturday afternoon.

Today will be nice. Perhaps a chance to get outdoors.

Load The Bus! This fantastic event takes place today from 10am-6pm, and gives to kids in need that are returning to school this upcoming week. The event will provide school supplies to hundreds of students. Since tax free weekend is no longer in effect this year, this event is expected to be crucial for some.
