Congrats Williamsburg, Gloucester, Toano, etc. Was snowing right good here in the Southampton area (west of Suffolk). But the southern edge of the precip seems to have broken up extensively. Not sure if we'll see anymore in 23837. That other piece on the other side of the mountains may or may not survive the crossing.

Impressive to see snow sticking to roads in RIC this late in March...average high there is 63F just to put things into perspective. I know there's been accumulation as late as April in RIC, but this is still a rarity. Richmond has started to make up its snow drought with some good systems in the last few years including 3/1/09, 1/28/10, 2/5/10, 3/8/13 and now 3/24/13.
