RIC Airport Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 I think we should be somewhat satisfied this is not turning out to be an all rain event.....1-3" is ok. And hopefully most people in the immediate metro area will get on the higher end of things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hokierulz98 Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 9z RUC looks like 6z GFS more than the 6Z NAM. Has heaviest axis of snow moving through south of DC looks good for RIC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIC Airport Posted January 26, 2011 Author Share Posted January 26, 2011 Officially 0.51" at KRIC since midnight. I guess we could use the moisture, the month has actually been pretty dry overall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
