21Z SREF's increased for the Wednesday night/Thursday event.

LOL

Finally! AKQ woke up and matched the WSW for their northern and western zones, finally matching up with the other offices. It only was about an 8 hour delay?

Agreed

Sure? So climo for Louisa, Goochland, and Bowling Green dictates a WAA issue for this event or the December one for that matter? All I’m suggesting is that it may be time to realign geographiry to fit in better with the WAA issues AKQ deals with?

LWX is consistently better. I have a friend that works there and they are scratching their heads about why AKQ is reluctant to go to warnings in their western and northern areas, just like in December? Would certainly help to have alignment with Blacksburg and Sterling in these events and provide more consistency across the state?

Can someone knock on the door of AKQ and wake them up?

That is very fair.

Certainly didn’t mean it to be cheap. It is just mind boggling how Blacksburg and Sterling are always hours ahead of AKQ with their zones and they never match up. Sterling upgraded Charlottesville to 4-8 hours before AKQ reluctantly increased Richmond from 3-6. This on top of a WS watch being reluctantly issued and then a WS warning 3 hours before the event? C’mon?

Pretty sad how AKQ is so disconnected from the other offices?
