Many of the downtown roads are moderately good shape but some of the others are still pretty snow covered as much traffic as we see on the roads downtown is a bit of a ghost town but some people were Walking Around balls dogs have to go outside. The good news is they were able to understand the positive and beauty and snow covered downtown. The heart of downtown. First time in my life i live in a small city.

And continue our Live Team Coverage with a look at conditions on the eastern side of blue ridge. Wdbj7 tim saunders is leaving along the Mountain Road in lynchburg. Good afternoon, tim. Good afternoon, kimberly. We have some light sleet falling at my location right now. Shovel your sidewalk or driveway. I found one man in lynchburg who is helping his neighbors. Jason said he just wanted to be productive on his snow day. Spent his morning shoveling driveways and sidewalks along memorial avenue. I just felt like doing something nice and try to clean the sidewalk off. Let the city know im interested in doing my part. I just wanted to help out. Of course there is more than one way to move the snow. I found several people using leaf blowers to use the cars and driveway. Snow is light enough to actually work. As for the roads lynchburg public work plowed a few of the main roads through neighborhoods like the san dust dusty area. Most of the side streets are not touched until tomorrow. If you get around by bus the greater lynchburg is operating today on a modified schedule and theyre only running right now on the plowed street. Something to keep in mind if you do plan to use that service service. Live in lynchburg, tim already dealt with more than 160 crashes statewide because of the weather. One wreck involving an over overturned tractortrailer caused problem in Frederick County at the 300 mile marker near interstate 66. 33 cattle which broke free of the trailer and wandering around the interstate.

Travelers are braving the snow in covington. We find wdbj7 amanda kenney. Amanda. Hi, kimberly mcbroom. Actually the snow just got a little bit harder hitting my face. You could tell the ice is a little mixed. The snow is not going to stop many travelers from their plans plans. We did speak with some families and theyre packed up ready to hit the roads. Plans of having a snowshoe West Virginia. Theyre heading that way to wont stop them from getting to their destination. Although the snow Early Arrival did put a kink in travel plans. Drove about five hours yesterday to get up to this far to try to beat the storm and couldnt find no accommodations or reservations until today up at snowshoe. We stopped at covington to stay for the night and getting ready to track the last couple of hours in the snow skiing for the week. The roads up here in covington have been continuous continuously plowed and lots of tractortrailers are coming and trucks. That doesnt make the roads any easier to travel. Just a few minutes ago we saw a car having a lot of trouble getting up the road here. So kimberly, you definitely probably dont want to be on the roads today. Exactly. Just stay indoors if you have that option. Thanks a man today. In the Roanoke Valley crew, trying to keep up with how fast the snow is falling. So they can clear them. Wdbj7 eamon omeara is live in blacksburg. What is happening there, eamon omeara. Definitely slowing down. We have a little sleet coming in. We had a lot of snow this morning with flakes that were fluctuateing from big to small and back again. It is causing a nightmare for drivers trying to get anywhere today in the new river valley. State police and vdot have already responded to dozens of crashes and disabled vehicles because of the snow. Thankfully no injuries are reported in this area. I spoke to 1 person today who said he hasnt seen many people on the road. Seems many are just staying home which is good considering the issues hes facing with how fast the snow was coming down. Seems to just keep accumulateing after you have plowed it. Also a site thing. Windshield wipers are doing the best they can. When it comes down like, this it is hard to see. He says hes plowing the Business Park area in blacksburg so people can get to but he kept going over the same areas trying to keep up with all the snow that was falling. Now he also told me he only saw two cars that were stuck on the side of the road. I personally watched one car spin out on route 460 and wind up on the side of the road stuck in some snow. Definitely a reminder that it is troublesome driving out here which is why many officials are recommending just to stay home and stay off of these roads. Live in blacksburg, eamon omeara, wdbj7. Wdbj7. Preparing for possible freezing rain which could bring power outage this afternoon. Wdbj7 Danielle Staub joins us from public works in danville. Yes, that is right, kim. All the plows as you can see are out. They have taken care of the name roads this morning. Working on the collector roads now and then the residential. That is the plan if we dont see any more snow this afternoon. As you said the officials here and crews are worried about freezing rain this afternoon. Is limited to about an inch or two but it it is turning to slush as sleet and rain is coming down. That is why the attention is on the power lines. If that rain freezes we could see serious outages here. Across the south side no Power Outages are reported yet and officials are reminding people if they do lose power to get things, such as flashlights, candle, alternative heating sources and be careful. If your power does go out call nonemergency number in your area. It is not just in danville here here, kim, as we look at the freezing rain coming in but in roanoke and lynchburg and blacksburg as well. So be careful this afternoon progresses and as amanda said roads. Im live in danville, Danielle Staub, wdbj7. Thank you. A deadly wreck in roanoke. As Supreme Court youre leader, wdbj7. Name of pedestrians that was hurt in another accident thursday night in roanoke. David burnly was hit by a vehicle in the 500 block in orange avenue. Hes still in the hospital. Preparations are underway for funeral of Supreme Court justices antonin scalia. In kansas. Plans are yet to be announceed. Scalias death is settling up political battle who becomes the next Supreme Court justices justices. Flags are flying at halfstaff outside the Supreme Court today in honor of justice antonin scalia. Carried his body to an airport in west texas over the weekend to return home in virginia. Scalia died while on hunting trip in martha, texas. Determined by phone that the 79yearold passed away of natural causes. Ask the sheriff and marshall if there were any signs of foul play and they said absolutely not. Scalia was a conservative ruthlessly defending his interpretation of the constitution even though his opinions often sparked controversial. He could be charming and combative at the same time. He maintained friendship with liberal justice like ginsburg who said she and scalia were best buddies. His death leaves behind an even evenly split court with four conservative and four liberal Supreme Court justices. President obama said there is enough time left in his term to appoint scalias replacement. But many republicans including Senate Majority leader Mitch Mcconnell said the appointment should wait until after a new president is elected. I do not believe the president should appoint someone. It is called delay, delay, delay. Scalias death marked only the second time in more than 60 years that a justice has died bench. Cbs news,.

Any rain that falls will fall as freezing rain or will freeze on contact with any object at the surface and that will be the case through the afternoon and evening. Very dangerous when were expecting a lot of accumulation not until past midnight when temperatures warm above midnight and all that freezing rain will turn to plain old rain until the storm ends. So your Ice Accumulation forecast looks like a lot of us still see a glaze to a 10th of an inch of ice with the majority of the ice lingering across south side and parts of central virginia. That is area we see the highest risk for Power Outages. That is our biggest concern through the overnight.
