  1. FWIW the NWS is still calling for 3-5 in the Richmond/Glen Allen area.. If we end up with that it’s still better then 90% of the storms around here.. Also, will be an all snow event that rarely happens here.. I’m just hoping it’s enough to make my work office close early tomorrow lol…
  2. Definitely looks like that will be right around the bullseye. In my area of Glen Allen…I’m starting to think this area may get more accumulating snow from the wrap around upper low, especially if nothing expands back from the coast from the main system …At least it’s still close enough to keep watching up until game-time & should be all snow (whatever ends up here.)
  3. Actually, it was a slight improvement… Another bump up before game-time could really make it a decent event for that area…
  4. I will happily take 1 to 3 inches in my part of Glen Allen.. At least we won’t have to worry about it getting washed right away this time..… It just shows how hard it is to get a big accumulating snow in this area… Who knows….Maybe the storm will juice up & expand just enough to throw a few more inches up this way…
  5. Roads starting to be sprayed 288 / short pump.. hopefully it’s a sign of better things to come
  6. Looks like it’s getting ready to change over to more of a freezing rain /rain here in my part of Glen Allen.. I’d say just under 3inches.. Now we wait for the 2 inches of rain lol
  7. Decent band going through here as well best rates maybe all day .. still mixing but mostly snow
  8. I’m doubting we get much more measurable snow in this area, with temps rising aloft .. Roads are gonna be pretty treacherous for the next few hours especially back roads and the father north u are
  9. Flipping back and forth from a sleetly light snow to a moderate snow/sleet seem to be just south of the better banding
  10. Nice burst here just south of short pump getting close to 2 inches
  11. lol the sleet mix helped it accumulate on the roads hopefully we stay in the heavy band and stay this way for a few hours but it’s basically coming straight down now so we will see
  12. Brook rd to staples mill exit mod sleet and snow now making all roads here starting to be covered
  13. starting to finally accumulate on the road area here in Short pump area...
  14. Not the best photo but bigger flakes still melting on contact here in VA commons area… big difference from here to Powhatan just because of temps /elevation
  15. looks like a decent/heavier band should move back in within the next hour for most of the Northern side of the Richmond area...
  16. dusting in short pump area so far.. nothing on roads yet
  17. About an inch or less most likely in most places, but again depending how & where the banding comes through there could be a couple inches added in isolated areas…
  18. Yep, it’s why that break & the temperature getting over freezing for a few hours is going to be huge for avoiding any major ice damage… We will see how fast the cold air works in & re freezes everything… Hopefully we can hit another good band right before the storm pulls away… After 5 to 6pm
  19. Yeah, thankfully that break between noon to around 6pm will be a key time to get allot of places plowed & to avoid major icing issues on most of the main roads & other side roads … Whatever doesn't and has snow fall on top will be pretty treacherous once it all freezes over again… Would be nice if we can get another 1-3 inches especially since some is being washed away now…
  20. Unfortunately it’s just rain @ freezing rain here in my part of Glen Allen near short pump… I don’t expect it to turn over again until later this afternoon… this is going to cause major icing issues when this all freezes over later tonight especially on back roads and side streets… prob will be power issues in spots but hard to say how major that will be depending on where the temperatures stay around
