Answer 1

Blacksburg Va has a wide range of temps. during the yr. from below 0*c to 30*c. You will need all ranges of clothing for the very cold and the very warm. Hope this helps. Good luck and welcome to VA

Answer 2

For some what warmer weather take the traditional jeans and a few t-shirts. For the winter weather I suggest you take a ton of sweatpants/boots/jeans/and coats! It gets very cold there!! Also, I strongly recommend you buy a pair of uggs! They last a long time and there made nice and warm so in fall/summer/winter/and spring the'll be in style!! Sweatpants are so comfy during long classes and they keep you nice and warm!!=]

GOOD LUCK!
