Yes

 

wx people are really good at freaking out before the storm even is supposed to start. tho even the euro had .1" to DC by 0z which isn't happening.

 

now is a good time to nap.. come back out and freak out for real at like 4 am when the radar sucks.

Huffwx is at about 874 feet elevation. No wonder he got demolished.

 

In Richmond's case, well, they got shellacked with a batch of yellows that just happened to be snow in the daytime in late March.

 

Two takeaways:

 

even in late March if you get heavy rates you get annihilated, even in the middle of the day in south Virginia

 

elevation is always a win.

I know the drill and I'm normally pretty patient and logical with these things, but I just got that ugly mental image from last storm when areas to our south and west overperformed and our turn was coming later

The Winturd of 2011-2013 continues its ugly streak. Truthfully, I am not sure why you've put this much faith in this.

this storm is not a bust yet despite what ians saying. I didnt realize we were supposed to have 3 inches by now. The blue qpf was always forecasted to be way south of us Sunday afternoon

I didn't say it was a bust. Some folks mentioned total qpf incessantly like it mattered overall. I never expected anything by now. My low expectations were consistently in that post midnight to near sunrise timeframe.
