It also looks like it’s dying once it gets closer I think it's virga, which is just being detected by the radar at Waverly, which makes it look like it's getting eat up.

RichmondTarHeel Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 Well, the returns are pretty much over head. Time to go stair at the porch light till I see snow flakes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichmondTarHeel Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 The latest model runs are all absolutely terrible. Even takes snow away from dmv folks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhino16 Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 If it’s gonna bust, it better go all the way. I’m here to see that. I don’t care for another dusting really. Edit: It seems to be moving quick? Not sure, it looks like this first bit is zooming on Radar 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RVAman Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 Hate to be that guy, but this is a HUGE bust. This thing is gonna roll past us past 2 pm tomorrow. Precip after that is minimal. I hate that it's this way, but this is the Richmond way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This little sliver of snow coming through now is just the front edge of the storm. As the L jumps across the Appalachians and redevelops on the coast, the precip will fill in and we'll see some snow. Where it's really about to bust is up in DC, Nova and MD, where just yesterday some models were showing an historic event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those guys drool over every model that slams them, it's unrealistic in this region. Maybe this thing pulls out a miracle for all of us, who knows.

I can’t tell if they actually thought that would happen or not, but some seemed to believe the much higher totals. Hard to tell by looking at a ton of letters on a screen. Update: No snow yet, not even a flake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wasnow215 Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 It’s 34° right now where I live in Glen Allen. Temperatures are definitely going to be an issue with any precipitation. I think we’re looking at a sleet fest maybe, before it changes to all rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
