So, out of curiosity, did I miss something earlier this evening? Several of the weather sites online that were previously forecasting 8-12" for Richmond with the snow lasting through most of Saturday, have now backed off quite a bit, and are only calling for 5-8", most of which according to them, comes on Friday, only followed by snow showers or flurries on Saturday? Was there a bad run that freaked the forecasters out or something? I mean, they usually play it safe, so I'd see it as more likely to forecast less snow here than more.

The Potomac is largely frozen over down to the 14th St. bridge now. After another cold night tonight, Open water surrounding the airport may no longer be an issue.

p

It really never is because a city by a much larger and deeper body of water, Annapolis, infrequently has these issues
