Jebman Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 Nice Hit for E VA. If this were blackjack you'd have bet 1000 and gotten a blackjack on the Eastern Shore. I'll gladly take 2-4 inches in N VA and hope to G-d east VA gets totally annihilated. 1"+ qpf PLUS plentiful cold air and estimated 15-18-1 snow to water ratios I'd sure call that a Home run.....

Geoff Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 DT *** MAJOR SNOWSTORM INCREASINGLY LIKELY for ALL OF CENTRAL & EASTERN VA XMAS DAY & NIGHT.. New Model data shows new SNOWFALL record for RIC for XMAS day LIKELY to be set.!!! *** POTENTIAL*** for 10"+ of snow for eastern VA -- .. that is EAST of I-95 into North Neck & mid Peninsula and Into Lower MD easte...rn shore-- W of I-95 4 to 8"... 6-10" in Northern VA and DCA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidlothianWX Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 DT By that he is essentially saying that it is likely RIC will see 6"+ out of this storm (considering the fact that the snowfall record is somewhere around 5-6"). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inudaw Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 So.. could we get a "big" storm to affect this whole viewing area for once.. and not slacking the south side or the Richmond area??? XD :arrowhead: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIC Airport Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 By that he is essentially saying that it is likely RIC will see 6"+ out of this storm (considering the fact that the snowfall record is somewhere around 5-6"). Would be nice if there was a solid inch on the ground by 7am and with snow falling. That would mean that both defintions of a white christmas would be met. Of course the ground definition was met last year with a 2 inch snowdepth at the 6:54am observation. However, the last year to feature measurable snows on Christmas day was 1993 when 0.1" fell later in the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rainstorm Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 HM in other thread... "Looks like 6-10" for DCA but 10-20" event E VA, DE, E MD, SE NJ."

Martin Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December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

mitchnick Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 dc 6-10? will be tough to snow here if thats the case. we will see.before i say march 1980 again how did DC get in march 1980? I know BWI rec'd around 4" and I think DCA got around 6" that storm was torture for meas I thought we would repeat PDI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WeSuck Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 Hey rainstorm, this storm system will be bombing off the coast and moving north rather than ene like 1980 so it is a whole different setup. So stop worrying.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeVa Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 Just looked at 0z Euro, am I correct in assuming HR is almost all snow through the event? Accuweather says little to no accumulating snow for Norfolk, wtf? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeVa Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 I am still getting the hang of interpreting models. Just wanted to double check somewhere how close my interpretation was. HR is always the rain/snow battleground so I really don't know what to expect at this point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HR is always the rain/snow battleground so I really don't know what to expect at this point Oh you have got that right! ORF sucks and usually is either heavy snow or heavy rain as we are always usually within 50 miles of the rain/snow line. As of right now, ORF is golden. Although a 50 miles shift east is always helpful for any potential trends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weathervswife Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 6z GFS has moved up to a double where 0z was a single. I wish I lived about 60 miles east where it's a homerun, but lots of time for qpf to increase as we get closer. It's already happening and remember the 3 days leading up to Dec 19th last year? Every run gave us another couple inches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weathervswife Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 12Z NAM really slows the Christmas system down, but it's way south like the Euro with an open gulf. I need some NAM qpf love out here in the snow desert of west central VA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that doesn't make a lot of sense. One possibility is the low bombing of NJ bringing in warmer air off the ocean. Anyone have Euro info they would like to share?
