I'm new to Chesterfield County. Seems like it's a decent bit colder over here South of Midlothian. Where are you in relation to me (I'm near 288 and Lucks Lane). We're at 30/26.
Snow is arriving earlier than forecasted. Maybe a good sign for you all up north that the dry air can be overrun faster.
flurries here right now at 32/23. Expecting a nice wetbulb once the good stuff gets here.
Fv3 is much colder than the others for RIC. A lot of other models have us flip to rain/sleet right as the good stuff shows up. If we can keep the mixing to a minimum, we might get a lot.
I'm glad I live Southwest of RIC proper. Still preparing myself to be disappointed.
Not to get too IMBY, but I'm very schocked that we don't at least have an advisory up for Chesterfield County down this way near RIC with the latest trends on the weather models. They just put up warnings for counties just to the South and West. I guess they aren't buying the North trend?
6z nams and fv3 look real good for Richmond and Southwest, even a few double digit projections. Maybe some mixing issues towards the end of the storm, though.
I'd bet good money that at the end of the day the jackpot is Boone to Roanoke to Richmond (maybe mixing in Richmond though). I just can't get on board with a NC jackpot.
Edit (definitely some wishcasting involved as well)
I mean, when all the Richmond and Southern/Central VA peeps see a bunch of "booms" and faces in every other thread, they don't complain about you guys enjoying your computer generated snow.
Two feet of snow in Charlotte. In December? I’m from that area. This has never happened that I can recall. I’ll believe it when I see it. I’m gonna bet on a Central VA to DC jackpot.
My cousin Tammy in Hickory gonna get real fat and sassy off some bread and milk if she gets 2’ of snow.
Nah man, there's gonna be at least a dozen storms this year where they are complaining about "only" getting 6" of snow while we are looking at a nice cold rain.
Let them suffer!
