frd Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 11 minutes ago, C.A.P.E. said: They get a lot of mixed events typically. I think the avg annual snowfall there is around 9". They have been on a nice streak, but this one will probably end up being the biggest event in many years. Some AFDs were as of a few days ago calling this storm and the predicted snowfall to be a generational snow event. I imagine in some areas it truly is. Add the time of year, and it is an epic. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Places just north of there might see some stray flakes. I doubt even that makes it up to my yard. At least the snowstorm busted for charlotte. Seeing mets down there calling this a bust.

clskinsfan Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Pretty amazing how well the models did with this event at LONG lead times. They basically locked in on Southern Virginia a week ago and with the exception of a few off runs never changed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although the immediate coast here has done well. I have a feeling I wont be chasing a blizzard in Rehoboth for the third year in a row.
