  1. About 4 miles east of ya, it is absolutely ripping harder than Cheech and Chong and Willie Nelson all combined.
  2. I came back to say fuck yeah to this backend filling. Another hour or two of moderate to heavy snow. Completely unexpected after we all thought it was about to close curtains. Fuck yeah! Heaviest snow I’ve seen all day right now. I have 1.5 inches on the road and 3.6 on the ground in Western Henrico. I expect to get to 4 or 4.25 - 4.5. My 3-5 last call is being verified. Thank you snow gods. Thank you.
  3. @RIC Airport thank you for everything you have done. My time is done here. All of you take care. Adios!
  4. Anyway, I'm logging off to enjoy the last hour of snowfall before it goes away. It was fun (ish) everyone. Go make a snow angel, at least we can do that. Til' next time, if there is one. If this was the last snow event this winter, I appreciate each and every one of you and hope you guys score big time next winter. I'll be in Florida permanently. I'll miss this hobby. See ya!
  5. DT may have rolled with the NAM and SREF but by the time he put out his 6pm (7:30 pm) last call the short-range NAM and SREFs had already determined our fate. I cannot stick up for that man, he purposely put out maps for monetary value.
  6. Ain’t happening man, sadly. As soon as these bands from the west come through it’s all over. I have zero confidence in that ULL tomorrow as well. Can’t win them all, or any for that matter in Richmond. I’ll be in Tampa this time next year, was hoping for something decent.
  7. 2 inches here in Henrico. Damnit man I should’ve kept my 1-2 gut feeling final call. I told @RIC Airport yesterday I think 1-2 is the high end of this system but kept my word with the 3-5. The latest HRRR has this ending within the next hour. Shows over for us up this way folks.
  8. Yeah, no one down there can really say "we deserve it" when they more often than not get bigger snows than RVA.
  9. Yes, I meant East. This will be over shortly, sadly.
  10. Back end pushing West rapidly, will be over by 5pm.
  11. Rapidly coming to an end out west. I stand by my 3:30 comment. Sorry gents, even the short range models failed us yesterday. I hope everyone enjoys / enjoyed the snow falling around here in Richmond. Those of you SE, enjoy and send measurements.
  12. About 2-3 miles N of you. Looks like sand falling here lol.
  13. Blaming it on "model glitches" while he knew the entire time it was all bullshit that he was posting. He needs to have his page taken down.
  14. That filled in a bit ago. Our Southwest side of the state it is done, and it is pushing this way as we speak. At the end of the day, we got measurable snow. It could have been absolutely nothing. While I'm a bit upset the roads didn't cave like I hoped (better for safety and overall emergencies in general) I'm content with 2 inches.
  15. Come on, man. We knew this yesterday. The models showed up to 4-5 inches yes, including the GFS. Unfortunately, the short-range modles are more in tune with the actuality of what's happening. 3-4 inches is still possible. I'm close to 2 inches at 1:30 pm. We COULD see another 3-4 hours of snow.
  16. We will be seeing snow rapidly end around 3:30 pm around metro Richmond. I'm pretty certain on that based on current radar readings.
  17. Sitting at approximately 1.75 inches on top of my car here just North of Tuckahoe.
  18. I have no respect for someone who puts out maps the way he does. If you look at his comments on his last call map it's everyone tagging their entire family saying "OMG WE NEED TO PREPARE". It actually really annoys me how he does that for clicks and solely for monetary purposes. I get it, he's taking advantage of his platform but he also takes advantage of people who aren't well versed in winter weather as much as most of us are. I had coworkers shove his first guess map in my face and preached he is always right, of course they didn't like my rebuttal.
  19. He looks like an entire assclown right now. "But but but, there's no way!!! The models (DID NOT) showed amazing rates and everything!!!". WRIC and WTVR need to come to reality as well.
  20. All of the short-range models I've seen aren't even showing it reaching it Richmond at this point. IF it does, I expect it to be a brief snow shower for an hour or so. I can't imagine it'll be anything that will add additional accumulation. Hope I'm wrong. (I AM NOT A PROFESSIONAL AND I SUCK AT ALMOST EVERYTHING SO I COULD BE WRONG ABOUT ALL OF THIS AND WE END UP WITH 5")
