clskinsfan Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Closest snow on 81 is just south of Harrisonburg. 81 is already a mess in southern VA. http://www.511virginia.org/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOVAForecaster Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 So now that this is about to be another non-event for DC, when's the next storm coming.? I saw the potential for some clippers next week in the GFS earlier, rounding the trough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chase Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 sky across Shenandoah Valley to the south (left side of pic) is starting to become obscured so snow is starting to make its way to the ground to our WEST http://www.nps.gov/webcams-shen/pinnacles.jpg Unfortunately just higher humidity. There's no precip here on the valley floor in Luray. Big Meadows had a snow shower about 30 minutes ago, but otherwise, still waiting here.

mitchnick Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 you have to go to this link, click on "Regional Products" on the left side menu, then click on the "Northeast" on the map, then go up to just above the map to "Product Menu" and click on "Water Vapor Loop 12" http://weather.cod.edu/satrad/ that upper low looks incredible the radar pics are second to none on that site.....NEXRAD on left menu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
