The 12:54am snowdepth out of RIC came out and it's at 3".

http://weather.noaa....rrent/KRIC.html

I think we are off to a good start....could certainly be looking at a 6" storm which would make 5 such events in less than 2 years. :thumbsup:

again I dont get NWSFO AKQ zones forecast at all..

read this ... and tell me what it says ... is this an additonal 2-4" or is this totoal 2 to 4"?

6" in Chester? Bull Sh*t...

3.5" MEASURED near Route 10 and Harrowgate Road, Chester, as of 7:45 pm when I left for work. Unless it snowed another 2.5" in 1:15, I don't buy that.

Everything is going according to plan...for the most part. Max swath of 6-7" so far from AKQ tp VA Beach, lowering amounts as you go NW. The way the pcpn shield is pivoting, we may not get much more well W of I-95.

ok.... lets see... last night the pns showed 3 at Chester-- as of 11pm

the airport reported 3 as of midnight.

its been off and on snowing ... all night... picking up recently and its omly to 3.5...

there are folks west of chester reporting more than that

TOTAL SNOWFALL amounts have been lowered to 2 to 4 inches from yesterday.....

so even if we use 3.5... and it snows until late afternoon...

um....

strongly agree about the pivot and west of I-95 being the cutoff

Dave,

OUR MISTAKE...the SNOWFALL MAP and the ZONES should be ADDITIONAL SNOW ACCUMULATION TODAY...NOT storm total.

Sorry for the confusion folks...we're fixing it...
