Virginia's Seven Corners Center


The distinctive 7 CORNERS sign. Its "7" was a weather indicator. If lit in red, rain or snow was on the way. Green forecast pleasant conditions, with white predicting cloudy skies. If a light strip along the left was flashing upward, the temperature was rising. If flashing downward, the temperature would be dropping.
