had to share cause I thought it was funny... probably a legit ice storm in the blue ridge but in most places where people actually live a lot of this is during daylight and temps are only low 30s, so color me skeptical it would accrete that bad.
PARA and the HRRR both have this as a little bit of snow for the favored spots. Warm nose must really be less impressive than initially modeled.
Not even favored areas, actually. Take this as you will.
edit: RAP also agrees
Yeah, I don't mean to minimize the threat that ice poses! I do like to root for interesting weather (that isn't tornadoes or wind) though, so I'm slightly disappointed when the numbers are lower. Totally understand the danger remains.
I'll say this about Charlottesville: always snows longer than the radar says it should.
Still going. It's tapered off somewhat but I'd call it more impressive than flurries. Gonna call it 4.25" and that's likely the final measurement, I'll fix it tomorrow morning if spotter reports say I'm totally crazy. Ended up being a great storm.
