  1. The Kuchera map is not good for RVA. It would be a complete ice storm.
  2. HECS in the DMV and a sleet/cold rain in RVA. The atmosphere must have developed dementia. Where’s its memory?
  3. Already returns (virga?) showing up in SWVA all the way to about 50 miles west of Richmond.
  4. 28/18 down here just Southwest of Richmond. My misery will be your gain more than likely. I'm going to battle till the bitter end.
  5. I'm prepared to be disappointed. Just hoping for a good period of snow on Saturday before we mix and ice up the joint. Going to hold onto a small sliver of hope that it's much colder than forecasted and we can hold onto the snow for as long as possible. This will actually be a fun one to watch unfold.
  6. Includes a lot of sleet, though. The good news is that it wants to jackpot the RVA area QPF wise, the bad news is that it's not all snow, and it's the HRDPS.
  7. Not looking too good for some of us. Might be a situation where Short Pump gets 6"+ and southside/mechanicsville get 2" and some rain. The 06 FV3 has almost all of us with low amounts and lots of rain. I'm going to hold on hope since last storm, the cold air was stronger than modeled. Even Norfolk/Williamsburg got in on the action. Hope the Rain/Snow line stays further east than depicted.
  8. Looking at the radar, it looks like we may see another round here in a bit.
  9. Just cleared the driveway. That’s some heavy ass snow! Glad I did it tonight before this freezing drizzle solidifies it. I wouldn’t even be mad if there’s a fresh coat on it tomorrow. Y’all be safe out there. Update your beneficiaries on your life insurance before you shovel just to be safe!
  10. I was hearing pings on the window. Looks like rimmed snow at least. A lull in the action now.
  11. Looks like even that will be beat. Admittedly, I was keyed into my backyard in Midlo, but I remember seeing runs in the 15-18" runs (including sleet). Regardless, I'll take all the snow I can get.
  12. Pretty big bust for the NWS in the Richmond area, right? Just yesterday we were only under a WSW with a 3-6" estimate. Today they've upped it to 4-8" and now finally 6-10", but several places are already at 9-10" with at least a few more hours to go. I'd imagine the majority of the Richmond area sees double digits.
  13. HRRR looks to add another 3-6" for our area. It's not even done yet. It does have the mix line right over us, but it's going to be close.
  14. Every band that comes through is just better and better. I was at 9" about an hour ago, probably at 10" at least by now. Dumping snow! I think we'll beat the 1' mark with ease in Midlothian.
  15. Can confirm those radar returns that just hit Midlo are still all snow! If we can keep that mix like at bay, I think we’ll see over a foot.
  16. https://weather.cod.edu/satrad/nexrad/index.php?type=AKQ-N0Q-0-6# Are those heavier returns still all snow or is that sleet heading our way?? If that’s snow, then wow!
  17. 4" on the back deck in Midlothian! Will go out and take pictures at halftime of the NFL games.
  18. Nothing yet in Midlothian, but the radar has filled in much sooner than I expected. I’m expecting to see some light snow at any minute.
  19. 6z nams and fv3 look real good for Richmond and Southwest, even a few double digit projections. Maybe some mixing issues towards the end of the storm, though.
  20. Nah man, there's gonna be at least a dozen storms this year where they are complaining about "only" getting 6" of snow while we are looking at a nice cold rain. Let them suffer!
  21. Mulch turning white in Midlothian. Been coming down steady for about 30 minutes.
  22. Some snow showers moving through. Might be able to see a few flakes in the Richmond area
