    Dayum, WV!  What’s a brother got to do to make that purple and pink head east about 50 miles? (self-weenie and lol)

    Looks like a blend of the models says 2-4” for most of us, with 5-7” lollies.  After the recent 10” here in Churchville NW of Staunton and it being snow on snow, I obviously take whatever I can get- especially considering everything that falls will stay, despite what a jacked up snowfall depth map Chuck might show us says. Highs here are below freezing Friday (28°), with a low of 8° Friday night.

    It has been fun reading all of you for years, for real.  I wish I could participate more, but I only recently know a little and I am usually teaching 8th graders or brewing beer at a nanobrewery as my side gig.

    Happy new year, fellow snow freaks/ weenies!

    By the way my 1-3" fast in and out was meant for the I-95 corridor, probably 3-6" in a few spots just south of that, but still with the ground fairly warm and the fast motion, mid-day clearing trend, can't see this amounting to a big dump of snow for very many. Rates may be good for about 1-2 hours. May do better in central VA too. Better than nothing, anyway. 

    Can you just let it f-ing snow before you shit on how bad an event it is lol.

    the precip is so paltry---id be more excited about flurries in october

    The event hasn't happened yet.  There was no snow modeled at all until recently.  There is plenty of time for the modeled solution to get better or to vanish, but pretending like this is the final solution and saying it isn't a big enough event to be exciting is a bit much.

    Fatties falling in CHO but just not cold enough. I’ll get to measure something on the roof of my car though.

    My sister and her family live there.  I went to UVa (twice) and lived there for 8 years.  Good luck!!
