    C+. I can’t say I had more than 2” of snow on the ground at once so the low foliage was never truly covered. If that freezing rain storm had been snow or even sleet, I would be at a B- or A for my location. I was outside for a lot of the events though, so they were fun, I can say that.

    It’s pencil thin, but that might be the punchy part when it comes to wind, and that’s all I can say really. I don’t know how it’s been closer to richmond, but on the coast so far its been a rainy dreary day. The second batch of rain is still approaching, so after that we can watch what happens.

    Something interesting SE of Petersburg. Guess the showers won’t be that prohibitive after all. edit: at least a stronger downdraft

    There’s so many rain showers down in NC that it seems like it would be really hard to gain any instability here. Out west had some gaps in the clouds. Maybe some heavier puffs of wind can be brought from aloft in the showers but I don’t see much else for now. I’m interested to see how much steam the line near Lynchburg will have by the time it gets here.

    I was expecting like a 10, but I wasn’t sure how they would incorporate the qlcs part of the tor risk into the percentages
  6. Rhino16
    Are there any notable events where recovery occurred from showers earlier in the day? Is it something we struggle to do around here?
  7. Rhino16
    It seems like some of the 12z guidance shifted everything earlier in the day. It could be noise this far out, but it’s something to watch.
  8. Rhino16
    This actually happened at the right time here. It got dark before any real melting could begin. This makes it about on par with the rest of the events this year for the yard.
  9. Rhino16
    Lights just flickered. The slop on the lines must be catching some wind. It’s still 33 out so hopefully it keeps falling off. This thing isn’t worth losing power over.

    Measured 1/2” in Lancaster County, VA after whatever melting and compaction has occurred. It really isn’t sticking to much and feels more like rain in spots. I was hoping to cover the grass entirely at least once this year. Grassy surfaces aren’t looking any different than they did at sunset. It’s still 33 here too so I don’t think much else will come of this given radar appearance as well.
  11. Rhino16
    Is that even with the radar appearance? It seems pretty empty out near richmond, but maybe there’s something I’m missing when it comes to radar…

    Coating in the grass, starting to stick to gravel but couldn’t tell with pavement. The wind is ramping up and it’s going sideways.
  13. Rhino16
    Snowing sideways! Had about quarter-half dollar sized flakes earlier.
  14. Rhino16
    Switched to dime-sized flake clumps that make a noise when they hit your head. Grass caved quickly.
  15. Rhino16
    Temperature seems to be dropping finally and maybe a few flakes are appearing in the rain in Lancaster.
  16. Rhino16
    It’s interesting to see the 601 traffic cam in Bluemont VA has a coating, but others around the area don’t.
  17. Rhino16
    Yeah I guess so. It’s still within the forecast range assuming fgen and good rates. But I’m looking at the higher resolution stuff and obs at this point

    42 and some rain to the south. Hoping to see some heavy stuff later tonight!
  19. Rhino16
    What are you referring to? Just woke up and haven’t seen anything bad yet. I do need some coffee though
  20. Rhino16
    Even a 2-3” deal would be the best snowfall of the year in my yard. Interested to see the thermal situation over the next few runs. It’s been suspiciously close to 33°.
  21. Rhino16
    Was it Canaan Valley you’re thinking of? Seems we had another dusty rainfall yesterday.
  22. Rhino16
    Congrats everyone in Richmond. Northern neck missed again, but it happens. I’m interested in the wind tomorrow.
  23. Rhino16
    3k NAM seems too dry? It is snowing in spots north of the nc/va line but the model doesn’t depict that at all. It’s also missing stuff in NC as well.
  24. Rhino16
    Getting flakes in the northern neck

    -18 at Canaan NWR currently.
