Good morning, Lynchburg.

Four residents were displaced after a house fire broke out early Saturday at a home on Ardmore Circle in Lynchburg; firefighters responded at 2:20 a.m. and quickly controlled the blaze while a restoration officer helps the family secure temporary housing.

The Lynchburg City School Board approved Superintendent Kristy Somerville-Midgette’s proposed budget for fiscal year 2027 (FY2027), which seeks an extra $4.5 million in local funding to support raises, step increases and new positions.

A significant winter storm is forecast to affect our region from Jan.

24 to Jan. 28 and local officials urge residents to prepare for worsening conditions. Emergency management advises checking social media for real-time updates on shelters and emergency contacts.

The Virginia National Guard has staged about 300 personnel to help local communities brace for the incoming winter storm.

They are set to clear roads, remove debris, and use rescue helicopters as needed, according to Brig. Gen. Todd H. Hubbard.
