<br />i think that will be  upgraded tomorrow  am<br />
<br /><br /><br />

I'll be the judge of that :D

...and yes I do take bribes.

Seriously though, looking very good for CVA. Just got up so I've got to take a further look at obs upstream but everything I've seen thus far is just corroborating what we saw last night. Should be another fun night.

my prediction is it will be upgraded to everyone except a few miles from the ocean. peninsula is a certain upgrade.

LOL what do you think as far as SE VA goes for accumulation and possible upgrade based on current models? Looks good for ORF

I can't tell you it won't happen, certainly. It's all going to come down to timing. From the looks of things last evening, we had good amount of warming (mixed pcpn) in dendritic growth zone at the peak of overrunning. If that's still the scenario, I like what we have very much. Given the wetbulbs I saw last night...I'm honestly not inclined to tell you you're wrong (I leave all the wiseguy second guessing to others ;)).

So, historically an event that was primarily ZR for BNA would yield P-type concerns for the RIC metro area.  Apparently that is not the case with this event.  Anyone care to comment on why?  This has been a rule I know the AKQ mets consider in past events and even mention in AFD's.<br />

That assumes a typically marginally cold airmass. Given the antecedent cold air mass locked in place, (i.e. great evapo cooling potental, etc) the ptype issues will be significantly lessened. In fact, snow ratios upwards of 13-15:1 are a very real possibility at the outset Thursday for the metro. Should be a fun ride!

This is comical....From ODU, I have no idea how they determined this.

ODU Inclement Weather Update

The National Weather Service is forecasting light snow in the region beginning around 9 a.m. and mixed snow/rain in the late afternoon on Thursday, Dec. 16. Snow accumulation is expected to be less than an inch.

Because the university is in the middle of exam week and commencement is scheduled for Saturday, Old Dominion will open as planned tomorrow. However, officials will be closely monitoring the weather over night and through the day tomorrow. Should conditions deteriorate and closing becomes necessary, then all exams affected by the closing will be rescheduled for Monday, Dec. 20.

Yeah in SEVA you may worry about soil temps - But here in North VA - I'll tell ya all about soil temps - The ground is so unbelievably FROZEN - We have attained profound surface frigidization in terms of ground temps and road temps here IMBY!!!!!!

You know what our overnight low was last night? 9 degrees

We barely managed to eke out freezing today. It's already back down into the upper 20s.

As for our dewpoint - we've done run out of degrees. Yeah - we're in a recession alright lol - a temperature recession with dewpoints near ZERO. This is change I can DEFINITELY live with!!!!thumbsupsmileyanim.gifthumbsupsmileyanim.gifthumbsupsmileyanim.gifthumbsupsmileyanim.gifthumbsupsmileyanim.gif

We don't have no ptype issues here in N VA or DCA. What the hell is rain anyway?

All we'll get is SNOW HELL YEAH BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Believe you me - You got nothin' to worry about wrt ground temps in SEVA. You got COLD ground there too - And lots of snow, heavy at times - IS DEFINITELY ON TAP for your BY tomorrow!!!

Based on that run - If you live near the NC/VA state line you are in for 6-8 inches of snow.

Yeah, I'm jealous - But cheering you guys on!!!

I hope to god the models are WRONG.

I hope you get 12 inches.

Unfortunately, there will probably be some p-type issues down there but there won't be any shortage of freezing rain and ice.

Central VA and the Eastern Shore look like the jackpot areas with 95 % of the precip falling as snow.
