25° Three inches so far! A Jebwalk is imminent.

Wow, what a change from yesterday. It can stop the SE shift. But as always, I’ll believe it when I see it.

About the same in GB

Damn, that cutoff is sharp!

Nice flakes coming down in Great Bridge, Chesapeake. Grass and roads caving quickly, as expected. 21.6/19.1. A Jebwalk imminent in the next hour or two. A nice end to an over 3 year long drought! @Jebman

Nice flakes here in Great Bridge. Grass and roads already caving, as expected. 21.6/19.1. Jebwalk happening in the next hour or two!

Let”s bring it home here in HR!

We switch to all white/blue/silver 2nd week of Jan. All the red and green goes away. I have snowmen, snowflakes, and ski decor til March!

Skunked in VA, decide to go north to visit the White Mountains….only to get record warmth and skunked again.

Really coming down here in Stanley. Beautiful morning to sit in the hot tub and watch the flakes fall. Def making bourbon old fashioned snow cones in the PM. Closing in on 4” now.

Thanks for the heads up. But I’m chasing to the Shenandoah Valley as we speak. ☺️

Staying at Wintergreen for an extra day, and damn glad I did. 19/14, nonstop flurries since 4am.

Same here. Was going to chase to Front Royal. Glad I didn’t.

I hate to say it, but I do think that snow a decreasing possibility in VA. As an avid snow chaser, finding an event that feels like it will produce within the state lines has become much more challenging in the past 5 years. I’m still on the fence about Saturday’s storm, looking at the Luray and Front Royal area. It’s a haul from Tidewater, and with the temps being so marginal it’s a a complete roll of the dice. 5-10 years back, you could always count on climo. Not so much these days. Sad.

Lots of uncertainty today. From my perspective, living in SEVA trying to decide if I should pull the trigger on a cabin in the Luray area for a chase. Happy for the something to track within the state this year, but not excited about a sloppy solution or bust driving all that way. Would love the input from the seasoned vets and Mets on this area. Edited to add: willing to wait until 12z tomorrow to make a decision.

Yes. And the latest is rubbish.

Ouch, that hurts.

Jackpot for MBY but I’m not holding my breath. Still too much time to change and put me back in the rain zone where I normally reside.

I can only hope. Usually that’s me with 33° rain watching the entire rest of VA get snow. May be finally one I won’t have to travel for, but there’s still plenty of time to be heartbroken.

I found one of the few 1940’s builds in Chesapeake. She’s a gem.

Thanks! I also keep the old school ceramic C9 lights on my stairwell too. I love having the lights up thru the many shite 34° rain days in my neck of the woods….when I’m not chasing ❄️ up in the NW parts of VA. But once in a blue moon, we get lucky.

Complete mixed bag up here on Wintergreen the past several hours. About 8” on the ground, but not a proper place to measure bc the winds are HOWLING and the drifts are large. 24° and holding. Hitting the dry slot soon. Was an epic day!
