The Metro Richmond Area has a
tranquil weather pattern with our Spring season starting about April 1st, and
running thru about June 1st. During this period we are fixing out lawns with
seed and fertilizer and planting our trees and shrubs. Our Spring usually is
fairly short with temperatures in the 60s and 70s for highs and 40s and 50s for
lows. |

Starting July 1st we begin to
transition to warmer weather which runs until middle of September. Our Summer
season is very changeable from warm and wet to hot and dry. Our temperature
range runs from 70s to 90s for daytime and 60s and 70s for nighttime. During
this period we are swimming in the pools, taking great trips to the beach or
mountains, and having lots of picnics and other fun things to do.

About September 15th we begin to
cool off with temperatures falling back to the 70s and 80s and by October we
are in the 60s and 70s with night temperatures in the 50s. This time of year,
which is our Autumn, has some spectacular leaf color changes throughout the
entire metro area. Autumn continues until November 15th where the daytime
temperatures are preliminary in the 50s and 40s. |

Winter some years starts around
December 10th and continues until March 15th. Our winters are known for a
combination of cold spells and then warm spells. We do get snow with an average
of 14 to 17 inches per winter. Some years the track of the storms up the east
coast give us 1 or 2 big snows and lots of wind. During our winters many of the
homes are lit up with beautiful decorations and designs for the
holidays. |
Another interesting thing in our Metro
Area are flags. Many homes sport seasonal flags or the college they attended.
All in all we have just enough of everything to make our weather enjoyable and
a place where you would love to live.

Selling Your Home >Keeping Your House Safe
Home safety precautions are always important, but it is especially important to make your home "accident-proof" while it is on the market. Many strangers will be coming through your home who won't be aware of the minor hazards that you and your family instinctively avoid.
Go through your home with an eye for potential hazards. Remove the obstacles that you can and post "watch your head" or "watch your step" signs where they are needed. Look for loose banisters, uneven steps, precariously placed plants, art objects or anything else that could fall on someone, wet spots on bath or kitchen floors, toys that someone might fall over and anything that you have to step over or duck under. Make sure that rugs will not slip, especially those at the bottom of stairs. There aren't many things that will more quickly dampen a buyer's enthusiasm for a house than a bump on the head or an unexpected trip down a flight of stairs.
