Location
Richmond, VA
early prognosis on this weekend's weather setting up for the mid-Atlantic, shows an even BIGGER storm than what we got this weekend. Still too early to lock in a precip forecast, but this one could be a doozey.......stay tunedparty1:

Hmm I need an immediate reason to visit the Valley...
 
Yeah, it's a Miller A type storm and TN doesn't get squat. Good luck with it.

Most impressive, grasshopper......:cheers:

although this setup kind of gets it's bang going from more of a "B" scenario, there's a blocking low swinging down into the area tomorrow from the NW that's going to get pushed off the Atl coast as this low moves in. If things go as predicted, and the cold H pressure system drops down from the lakes area, that offshore L will steer the system right thru my backdoor.

Yeah, I'm a weather geek.....:looser:

Oh snap. I'm on a local TN WX forum so I've been picking up on some stuff. Not as big of a geek as you seem to be, though, haha.

We got 5" with the last system so that's 5" more than we've gotten in two years.

I havent checked up on any chatter of the latest GFS runs, but it's doubtful mid TN gets anything but cold rain.

You just haven't been alive long enough! It snowed 18" in January 1995 in Nashville/Central 10-O-C. I was there and in college. NO one but us "outsiders" knew how to drive in it. I had a blast watching the locals get stuck in 4wd's while my Ford Fiesta went where ever I pointed it.
 
Pouring down snow here, it started around 6am and we now have about 3" on the ground. Thats a inch an hour rate!

They are calling on around a foot.
 
You guys suck! We got a samll dusting twice last year. So far we are 0-3! :bawl:
 
They are saying that Charlottsvile VA will get around 28". I'll bet there will be some snow wheelin going on at Crozet.

Is there a web site for Crozet?
 
We didn't even get the ice event...been a cold, cold rain here the whole time. Was watching news reports up in Greensboro it turned over to a heavy snow unexpectedly and the roads were a mess for the morning rush hour. Schools up there made the call last night to close today in anticipation of ice, and they didn't re-open until yesterday from last weekends storm...so they got pretty much the whole week off....not fair!!!

They're calling 2 feet plus up around D.C. where my cousin lives...ohh how I wish I could drop everything and take a road trip :D
 
The roads aren't really bad yet in Lynchburg. I have been out all morning and it just doesn't seem cold enough to stick to the roads.
