One day I'll chase one of these VA Beach blizzards. They happen every winter. I'd love to see a blizzard like NC gets all the time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RevWarReenactor Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 Is this like a hurricane, where its just getting scooped up OTS by a trough or a kicker? If thats the case, I don't think we stand a chance of this coming back. If it was the case where we just needed a high to be less strong up north, we'd have a chance of a north trend. Tough break, its so close, but so far. But this is exactly what happens during Hurricane season with fish storms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthArlington101 Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 Time to start asking the important questions for this storm, like “how much is an AirBnB in Norfolk” and “how many days would I be stuck in Norfolk.” 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not the Tug Hill where they clear the roads as fast as it snows. I don't want to be stuck in VA Beach. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weather Will Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 Try to look at the glass as half full; we have below freezing temps for over a week with snow and ice on the ground. Kids got out of school for several days and the government let people work from home for three days. Hopefully we can still cash in on a pure snow event, but this winter gets a B so far from me. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RevWarReenactor Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 My thoughts exactly, way better to chase storms up north, they get a foot overnight and you are out of there in the morning. God knows how many days you'd be stuck with a foot in Virginia. Ill pass. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeesburgWx Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 I grew up in Norfolk and moved up here in 2013. I experienced Boxing Day and it was a blast. Sorry, not sorry. But damn, this shit makes me sick if they get a storm that is being advertised. Even 2016 here, I only got 17-18" because I lived in Pentagon City. Still have never seen 20" and Norfolk is on the cusp. WTF. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winter_warlock Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 We could be 3 hours from the storm and people would say " it could still trend NorthWest.. we still got 180 minutes " .. With only 3 -4 days left I think this one is another southern storm 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, I bet Atlantic City, Coastal NJ, NYC, LI, etc actually do really well with this in the end while we watch. Seen this story before. Precip will head in from off the coast and will hit a wall somewhere just east of Philly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
