BRP conditions right now?

Bright sunny and cold this morning. Supposed to hit 40 this afternoon. Repeat thru weekend. Teens at night in the valley..
Subtract 5-10 degrees for being on the ridge and then add some crosswinds as it traverses the ridgelines..

BTW, the parkway is open, from what I hear. But it was closed on the notrthern end (near Wintergreen) last week. So I would expect ice in the higher elevations of Virginia (Mt. Rogers, Peaks of Otter, etc.)

Wherever you go up there it's going to be cold...

Found this from the nps.

From November through March, some sections of the Parkway may be closed for extended periods, especially in the high mountains of northwest North Carolina and south of Asheville. Visitors are encouraged to keep up with the most recent weather forecasts and to call the park information line at (828) 298 0398 for daily postings of road closures.
