I assume this would be a textbook Miller A evolution? Latest EPS ensembles have the coastal low much further off the coast than the American solution. Will be interesting to see if the models begin to converge at all. Given the arctic blast, I would be surprised to see us not have enough cold air for this event. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JFLETCHER Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Issue with the weekend storm is a Great Lakes low. Those always screw us over keeping warmer track. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have the coastal low, but the GL low messes up the thermals and we get ice or rain. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIC Airport Posted January 6 Author Share Posted January 6 6 hours ago, RVAman said: Yes, I took my break. I apologize for glooming and dooming yesterday. Weather made my emotions high. I apologize, all. Hopefully we can get some more on the back end. You're good. I was also so cautious, but that's because of how things have turned out in recent memory. But, at least the one, two, three, four snow inch drought is over. Now we need a 6" storm to end that drought. Heck, could use a foot! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JB Fins Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 AKQ continues to dial back any accumulations for this evening. Forecasted for about an inch, I will be ecstatic if we get that.

Depends on where you are. South of midlothian I think you’d be lucky to see a dusting. Northwards from Louisa to the northern neck is probably the sweet spot 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoCoWx Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Vast majority of RVA is without water access right now, and under a boil advisory because the water plant that supplies pretty much the entire city, plus parts of Henrico and Chesterfield lost power, which caused a pump failure. No timeline on restoration yet. Carytown Kroger and Publix apparently have both already completely sold out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
