clskinsfan Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 0z suite of the NAM and GFS showing us southern/central Virginianers some love tonight. You look to do very well with this one. Even up to Harrisonburg should be a decent event. Now just give me another 50 mile shift and we are all happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

usedtobe Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 GFS gets DCA decently, but mid-levels are marginal. Def getting interesitng there. It does make it interesting. The nam would definitely be snow over dc and even my house. The GFS might me mixed for awhile as the boundary layer temps are kind of warm. If there were moderate snow I'd lean towards the cooler idea but this is the kind of storm you could easily get burned on if the rates stayed on the low side.
