RVASnowLover Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 Not getting excited at all for the Wednesday system. Unless things change, looks like an I81/Nova special. Chilly rain, maybe some mixing here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benjammin Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 In a general sense that's more often right than not, but so far I would say more mix than rain for RVA. Sent from my motorola edge plus using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benjammin Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 I lived in Richmond for eight years and I know what you mean, especially 2010 coming from NOVA. Now I'm a little south of Lynchburg and it's pretty comparable to Richmond, just a little more elevation.

Yeah it’s going to suck watching them get all the fun while we get a mix. That’s how it goes though. Hopefully we’ll get our storm this season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIC Airport Posted December 13, 2020 Author Share Posted December 13, 2020 DCA is a better place to be, but it's not a slam dunk for them. If I was within the beltway, not sure I'll be expecting more than 2-4", even at this juncture. That I-95 corridor is going to be a nail biter up until you get past PHL. Different scenarios on the models. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll just enjoy our cold rain here 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichmondTarHeel Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 @DTWXRISK, what needs to happen with this system for the Richmond area to cash in on a little bit of snow? Any hope of a SE shift, or a more negative tilt? Or, should I just go book a hotel at Charlestown Casino for Tuesday - Thursday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JB Fins Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 Yeah, it's been like that even in Eastern days. However, it does grate my cheese when we are in the bullseye (not this little thing obviously) and Ji is all congrats Richmond, it shifts north, they get dumped on and if we complain, it's like move north but they constantly complain and then it's rinse and repeat. I am missing Bob Chill's posts though, I need to see where he landed or if he is taking a break. I was hoping DT would stick around longer but guess too many trolls don't know how to take him with a grain of salt. Fingers crossed for Friday.

I’ve learned a lot on this forum but I’ve also learned that when it comes to snow accumulation it’s very much only my backyard matters. Yeah I remember when I said something about a snow event. I believe we were in the bullseye and then it moved north. I took so much heat for it. “Move north” or “were supposed to get more snow than you”. It’s whatever. I usually just post on this thread 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DownS.EasternVa Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 The 6z GFS was the most rocking for snow I've ever seen on any model for Va, in 10+ years. I've been following models since Easternwx forums. I'll try to keep my excitement down. We maybe looking at an epic back half of winter, lets reel her in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
