rmcwahoo Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Well how's this for irony? This thread was started because typically Virginia south of NOVa misses most of the major storms, and the main forum here doesn't seem to care or consider RIC/ROA/CHO/Hampton Roads etc part of the "Mid Atlantic." So we try to unite in this subthread and what happens? Here comes a Hampton Roads hammer potentially that could have nothing at all in Richmond and points north and west! When we finally try to unite we get split up yet again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 No ill will toward the DC folk but perhaps you should review the tone, attitude and animosity aimed at the "RIC and south" crowd (by most, not all) that enjoy the insight of the NOVA bunch and lurk there for good model discussions among other interesting rants. For me, eh, it only bothers me fractionally. I'll still lurk and enjoy the good info. Our forum is pretty big with quite different climos north to south. Makes sense to split up the convo probably.. In general I've found the folks south segregate themselves though. Eh.. whatever. /asshat out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a world that exists beyond a 40 mile radius of Washington, DC and a large chunk of that world is the "Mid Atlantic" ... However, based on the way this "mid atlantic" board understands geography, you would never know it.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we finally try to unite we get split up yet again! Based on the latest runs, Richmond will get in on the action, but the amounts will be higher the further south, southeast you go. Unless it continues ticking a hair north every now and then on the models, in which case, RVA might end up in the bullseye by the time the storm gets here.

Unless it continues ticking a hair north every now and then on the models, in which case, RVA might end up in the bullseye by the time the storm gets here.

SeVa Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Well 18z 4k NAM backed off its 15" southside totals to a more reasonable 6-8". Things look good for a general 4-6 with lollis to 8" IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TYFNGUY Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Ouch, if it did that for the southside I'm guessing that peninsula is down to a 2-4? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeVa Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Nice moderate snow in this band that just popped over northern southside and southern peninsula. Could definitely see us passing 1" if this keeps up for another hour or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crainjd Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 3 and 10 go 4-8" for south side, while 13 goes 3-8". Let's see where they end up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoCoWx Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 The way the storm has been trending, I am sure RIC will be looking at 2-4. DT is calling for 4-6 for Richmond, and the various news stations seem to be calling for 3-6, though one did have 3-7...which I thought was an odd range.
