[benjammin]

DCA 2"

LYH 8.5"

RIC 5.9"

So 5.9" at the airport, would that equate to 7" around most of Richmond, given the airport's propensity to come in with a low number for snow accumulations?

DCA 1.4"

LYH 6.7"

RIC 4.3" (other places not the airport in Richmond will be higher, 5.8"

12/16 RIC high 32

Wait, we're aiming for RIC high temp or low temp?
