Down to 33.1/30.0 here with moderate snow, lol. I dropped 22 degrees in 90 minutes earlier.

Will those pass thru TSA???

Well, rain is turning to snow here, lol. Currently 37.7/33.1 with NW wind 11 gusting to 30 mph. Temp has dropped 22 degrees in 90 minutes.

Yep, a line from Farmville to Richmond looks good currently. Be safe and have fun!

Things are popping down S and SE of Roanoke into NC, currently 3 separate TOR warnings.

Decent squally type shower rolling thru here now at 8 am. Things already popping to the south with STW from Lynchburg/Roanoke to the south and down on the NC/TN line just south of Boone (where a TOR Warning just expired). Probably need a few breaks for some surface heating, but looks to be a rocking day, especially to the east.

Raining now and 58.8/56.2 degrees at 7:50 am. Had 0.65" at 7 am when I dumped the CoCoRaHS gauge. Temp warmed 14 degrees overnight! Lots of 'lines' pushing thru this morning and off to my SW.

When a person that lived with Santa Ana winds in southern California for 35 years says they are tired of this 'blanking wind' in only 5 years, yeah, we do wind well.

Another penny to add to the pile- 11/11 0.1 11/30 0.1 12/02 0.2 (sleet) 12/05 3.8 12/06 1.5 12/08 0.5 12/09 5.1 01/17 0.1 01/25 4.5 (mix of snow and sleet) 01/26 2.8 (95-97% sleet) 02/04 0.3 02/07 1.0 02/23 0.2 03/13 0.1 Total 20.3

Just went to a rain/snow/sleet mix here at 8:20 am. Currently 37.1/33.5 and falling pretty fast.

Looked around on cams, snow at usual places, 'Shoe, Canaan, Highland County, 95% of WV. Looks like snow line is around 1800-2000 feet elevation and falling fast around here.

Set a record high of 81.0 degrees, old mark was 80 degrees from 1990. Crazy temp drop in last 3 hours, 35 degrees! Currently 39.9/35.0 with rain falling here at 8 am with NW winds 12 gusting to 20 mph.

LOL, still 73.3/47.0 at 11 pm here. Will set (tie) the record from 1990 of 81 degrees. Waiting for the snow?!?!

March 9-16th of '95. On 9th I had a 68 high, then a 22 low with 3 inches of snow. Next day an 11 degree low. Rapid turn around and a 77 degree high on the 16th. Crazy.

Either the 2nd or 3rd time already this year where I zoom up to almost a record high then clouds/showers suppress it at the last moment, lol. High was 79.5, record 80 from 1990.

Yep, several opened up here today, crazy. This weekend is the Highland County Maple Festival, hoping those 40's and 50's in the forecast there happen. Something seriously wrong with going to a Maple Festival in shorts lol.

Just chased inside by a gusty shower in last 10 minutes. Been outside all day working on the yard and getting garden area prepped for the upcoming season. High was 79.5 about 1/2 hour ago, down to 69.6/56.4 with the rain falling now.

Thinking the same here. Hope all is well @Roger Smith

So, I was likely heading to a record high, it was in upper 70's right at noon! Then presto! Clouds rolled in and I had several rounds of small gusty showers thru about 10 pm. Enough to NOT allow a new record high at 79.0 degrees (record is 80 from 2009). Same with the low at 48.8 degrees, sandwiched between the current 'warm minimum' record of 50 from 2009 and the 48 degrees from 1983.

Pretty easy to follow the crest of the Blue Ridge this morning!

Shattered. High was 78.7 degrees, new record.
