AMERICANS ARE NOW
FULLY VACCINATED AND STUDIES
SHOW THE BOOSTER PROTECTS
AGAINST 90%
OF HOSPITALIZATIONS JOHN
LAWRENCE TONIGHT SPEAKS TO
EXPERTS ABOUT OUR FUTURE WITH
THIS VIRUS.
>>COVE AND 19 HAS BEEN A DOMINANT FACTOR IN EVERYDAY LIFE FOR THE PAST 2 YEARS
RANGING FROM MASK WEARING
IN PUBLIC TO LET THE
HOSPITAL STAYS.

THAT MIGHT CHANGE IN THE NOT
TOO DISTANT FUTURE.

THE SOONER THE WORLD CAN GET
THE UPPER HAND ON
THE PANDEMIC.
>>PEOPLE JUST CHOSEN NOT TO BE
VACCINATED AND THAT’S
THEIR CHOICE.
AND WE WILL CONTINUE TO PROVIDE
THAT HERE.
THE ONES
WHO ARE NOT VACCINATED ARE THE
ONES WHO ARE FLOCKING TO THE

IN HILLSVILLE UP TOWARDS HOT
SPRINGS ALREADY IN THE MID
20’S, 29 BACK TOWARD SMITH
MOUNTAIN LAKE ALONG WITH THE
LYNCHBURG NOW AS WE GO
THROUGHOUT THE NEXT
FEW HOURS BECAUSE WE HAVE THESE
CLEAR SKIES AROUND SOMETHING WE
HAVE NOT SEEN VERY MUCH OF OVER
THE PAST FEW DAYS.
OUR TEMPERATURES ARE GOING TO
DROP A LITTLE BIT FASTER THAN
WE’VE SEEN OVER THE PAST FEW
NIGHTS BUT EITHER WAY NO
MATTER WHAT IT’S GOING TO BE
COLD INTO THE MID 20’S BY
09:00PM WHERE WILL BE STAYING
FOR A LITTLE WHILE NOW AS WE
HEAD INTO TOMORROW MORNING.
WE ARE LOOKING AT THE TEENS AND

THE 40’S AGAIN SOMETHING WE
HAVE NOT SEEN VERY MUCH OF THE
PAST FEW DAYS
AND A LOT CLOSER TO WHERE WE
SHOULD BE FOR THIS TIME OF
YEAR ARE AVERAGE HIGHS RIGHT
AROUND 47 DEGREES.
SO AS WE MAKE OUR WAY ACROSS
THE REST OF THE REGION, MOSTLY
40’S, HOWEVER, WE MAY EVEN HOLD
ON TO SOME UPPER 30’S IN AREAS
LIKE
WITH BILL AT 39 DEGREES HERE IN
ROANOKE 4446 ROUTE TO VISTA AND
SOUTH BOSTON.
OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS
THOUGH OUR TEMPERATURES ARE
GOING TO BE STAYING A LITTLE
BIT CLOSER TO THAT AVERAGE
OF 47.
BUT THEN WE HEAD TOWARDS
WEDNESDAY.
THAT’S WHEN WE’RE GOING TO SEE
AT ANOTHER COLD FRONT DROPPING
OUR TEMPERATURES ONCE AGAIN.
AND AS WE ROUND OUT THE END OF
JANUARY OUR TEMPERATURES ARE
GOING TO REMAIN WELL BELOW
AVERAGE SO BE PREPARED WE’RE
NOT DONE WITH THESE COLD
TEMPERATURES JUST YET 7 DAY

VALLEY STAYING IN THE 40’S
THROUGH TUESDAY.
THE CHANCE FOR PRECIPITATION ON
TUESDAY IS DEFINITELY POSSIBLE,
HOWEVER WE HAVE KIND OF REDUCED
OF THAT
PERCENTAGE THERE MAYBE SOME A
MIX OF RAIN EVEN A LITTLE BIT
OF SNOW WILL BE POSSIBLE.
BUT THEN WE
HEAD TOWARDS THE END OF YOUR
WORKWEEK THOSE TEMPERATURES ARE
