Surry County will see potentially damaging, gusty winds from a weather pattern change this morning through Tuesday morning.

We will also see low relative humidity, which will create dangerous fire behavior conditions.

Monday night will bring cold wind-chill temperatures.

Snow maybe?

Snow is forecasted for Surry County beginning in the early morning hours. Please monitor weather outlets as this will probably change. The timing is going to be bad especially for folks trying to get to work.

Behind the set of flashing lights is someone’s family member, working inches from speeding traffic. Across the U.S., hundreds of responders have been struck and killed while helping others.

When you see flashing lights, slow down and move over. Your actions can save a life.
