  1. I sense that for some bizarre reason, Virginia thinks it’s cool to have an interstate go through a dense pine forest.
  2. FROM LARRY COSGROVE This is a formula for entrenched, low-latitude cold and cases of heavy snow and ice. But given that the first piece of energy in the series will be further north, the scenario I have constructed is for a Colorado cyclone to progress eastward into Virginia, then curl up along the coastline of the Mid-Atlantic, New England and Maritime Province. Timing is uncertain, but using the ECMWF ensemble package, between February 25-28 should fit. I do not think we get out of the rest of calendar winter without yet another major weather event. If the next two in the series, acting with a motherlode in the Great Lakes region like we have currently, an area from the Great Plains to the Eastern Seaboard (probably minus the Deep South, but you never know....) could be hit with major snow and mixed precipitation potential. Given that the 10MB circumpolar vortex is again unified and deepening, I think that we start to see meaningful warm-ups below 40 N Latitude in the last week of March. With thunderstorm threats. But it's going to take some time, this time!
  3. This is why I took I-95 south from Petersburg to Nashville; US 64 to Raleigh; I-40 to Winston-Salem, instead of I-85 today.
  4. How far North of Dry Fork is the snow? Last night, I encountered snow north of Petersburg
  5. Van Denton often features a longrange snow chance graph for the following ten days that only shows snow chances for that period. I love it, and don’t think I’ve seen any other tv met do the same.
  6. I concur, although it seems some here have redefined central NC to mean Raleigh—Durham and its surrounding counties.
