12/11 - 0.75 in Hanover County, VA

I was a sophomore at MIT for the Blizzard of 1978. Nothing since then has compared (Virginia resident).

Chesterfield and Hanover schools closing 2 hours early Thursday. No WWA from AKQ - watch it happen at 1 pm tomorrow.

Those runs are tasty here in RVA.

I used to work there - they did screw up this past Monday. If we close Monday in Chesterfield, there WILL be virtual school this time.

I also shared an edited version of the "wasnow215" blurb with leaders of Chesterfield Schools.

Feeling bullish this year BWI: 30.2 DCA: 22.7 IAD: 28.6 RIC: 17.5 Tiebreaker LYH: 21.0

Less than one inch in Richmond area, changed to sleet around 5:30. Schools opening on 2-hr delay.

Temps dropping - now 32 to 34 in RVA. Time to take a ride and decide about schools.

Snow falling around RVA, but temps holding 35 to 37. Only wet.

Need you folks up north to get a foot while RIC only get 3" My total speculative forecast: One disruptive event each in February (6-8 inches) and March (3-5 inches).

Fabulous day. Round trip from Mechanicsville to UVA for the basketball win against VCU. Came home to 12 inches!

Last winter had multiple events when RIC was heavier than DCA and IAD. Final totals for the season: BWI: 15.4" DCA: 7.8" IAD: 11.9" RIC: 12.4" Our primary events for Henrico County were on 12/8/17, 1/4/18, 1/17/18, 3/12/18, and 3/21/18

BWI: 31.7 DCA: 24.1 IAD: 35.7 RIC: 16.8 Tiebreaker LYH: 20.3 Book it!
