Bob Chill Posted December 8, 2017 Share Posted December 8, 2017 Dropped from 37 to 36. Was at 37 for at least 4 hours. Looks like everything is going exactly as expected. This is one of those rare events where not much can go wrong outside of the western edge and RS line. Thankfully most of us are right in the middle of those zones.

yoda Posted December 8, 2017 Share Posted December 8, 2017 I know this is just to our south... but it includes S MD and LWX is in the CWA ATTN section at the bottom: Mesoscale Discussion 1789 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0152 PM CST Fri Dec 08 2017 Areas affected...Parts of southern/eastern Virginia into the Delmarva Peninsula Concerning...Heavy snow Valid 081952Z - 090045Z SUMMARY...Heavy snow rates around or in excess of 1 inch per hour could develop and impact Richmond and surrounding areas of southern and eastern Virginia by early evening. This could commence as early as 5 PM EST and continue through the 8-9 PM EST time frame. DISCUSSION...Strengthening large-scale ascent is contributing to increasingly saturated thermodynamic profiles and precipitation rates across much of southern through eastern Virginia. This appears likely to be aided by a zone of enhanced lift associated with mid-level frontogenetic forcing, which is forecast to redevelop northeast of the central Appalachians through the northern Mid Atlantic Coast region by early this evening. This is expected to increase lift through the favorable mixed-phase layer for large dendritic ice crystal growth, which could potentially provide support for heavy snow rates. Generally west through north of the Hampton Roads area, roughly from near Danville through much of the Greater Richmond area, northeastward into the Delmarva Peninsula, models suggest that temperature profiles are generally below freezing. Current surface temperatures/wet-bulb temperatures appear marginal for snow reaching the surface. However, with the onset of nightfall, and perhaps weak low-level cold advection and cooling associated with melting precipitation, a changeover to snow appears possible by the 22-23z time frame, if not before. Heavy snow rates around or in excess of 1 inch per hour appear possible, and may continue into the 01-03Z time frame, before diminishing. ..Kerr.. 12/08/2017 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

NorthArlington101 Posted December 8, 2017 Share Posted December 8, 2017 So there.Looks like the GFS with the over-exaggeration of less accumulation around the UHI's.
