'X' is pretty much the same now.

X is 1000000x better than Truth. It's right where it should be imo.

For you, certainly 

Not sure if that's supposed to be a dig, but it's over for everyone.

Lots  of  42 and rain though

 

I do enjoy chilly rainy days as well. I've always liked them since I was a kid.

No chance. No winter=cold spring

 

No chance in hell that happens haha.

The clocks have moved forward. Nearly 80 on Friday. I'll get everyone a shot at the local Applebees if it snows.

I prefer it just stay warm at this point. I've gotten accustomed to the warmth.

Man I must be the youngest person here. (I'm 29). I hope I see the day I can retire. I do actually really enjoy this rain. If it's not snowing I LOVE rainy days. The sun is very sensitive on my eyes so this is welcomed with arms wide open. 

Looks like some action out at hour 300 on the 6z

March looks to be active with chances lining up one after the next. All rain but some severe possible.  We have a plethora of cold fronts, gulf storms coming up and Atlantic systems backing in to look forward to. At least it won't be boring.  Unless it's another long range fake but I doubt it. Models do well forcasting rain events way out in the future.

Some potential for graupel or hail for a few of us today.  Maybe some lightning as well. Who knows?

Gonna be some real gusty winds tonight. I think we could definitely see some thunder / lightning. 

Getting angry at posters on a user board because of your beliefs, whether they are scientific facts or not is just silly. Thread has gone way off from what it should be..

So winter is over?

Winter is over? Shit the blinds?

Thanks again for keeping this thread and hope alive @RIC Airport

i had a feeling about this one from the start.  I hardly ever remember a clipper type scenario working out for Central VA.  Thought for sure the TV Mets would have learned their lesson.  Jim Duncan, a snow weenie himself, used to always ignore the models on clippers saying it’s just not how we get our snow.

i am almost ready to mulch and fire up the grill.  If 2/29 works out, I will be thrilled but once the calendar turns to March, well, I am past it at that point.

Maybe we will actually have a severe season this year and the thread momentum will continue.

 

 

 

I too am about ready to get the mulch, lawnmower and grill going. I'll hold out for the first two weeks of March and after that I'm ready.

I am having second thoughts. I might drive up to Arlington later today. Will make a decision soon. I can't help myself. 

I dunno.. looks like D.C. could miss out too if the northern trend continues. 

I'm not sure why I even got my hopes up for this weekend, even a slushy inch isn't happening anymore. Unfortunate. 

NAM is pulling this thing far far far away from us. Sad.

Another NOVA win....

The best lift is still north around the i-66 corridor. 

I am not sure if the rates farther south, mainly south of Ashland will be able to overcome the marginal surface temperatures accumulate. QPF is very limited so anything wasted makes it even more difficult south of Caroline County. 

 

Are you suggesting rates wouldn't be good enough to have any accumulation South of Caroline? 

GFS looked someone decent for a wide 1-2" I think?

Looks like Kings Dominion and North just a hair will be in the prime spot for the best spot locally to Richmond.

Sketics and anyone else worried and concerned, well that's why the panic thread exists.

Meanwhile, thee 12Z HRRR, has a nice bad of snow between 2am and 4am Saturday morning across the Richmond metro area.

 

 

I don't think it's panicking, just the realistic side of our area.

Never is.  Tried to remain quiet as to not be a Deb but shoot, we rarely score on clippers in the best scenarios.

Yeah, pretty much. I knew this one wasn't gonna do much for us. I'd be surprised if even 30 miles N of Richmond getm uch

Trending not in our favor it appears. 

Short Pump will cash in this time, finally!
