Richmond Metro/Hampton Roads Area Discussion


RIC Airport

I’m thinking between 4-7”  I could totally bust if warm air comes in from weaker HP to the N.  This storm is more of an overrunning event and not a costal storm.  Coastal tend to pull in warm air from the Atlantic.

00z GFS is about 20-25 miles north with axis of the heaviest hand.

Slight N adjustment. Could be just wavering  back and fourth a bit but could also be beginning of an adjustment to Euro/Nam.  

My guess is 4” for RVA with a lot of sleet

GFS bump north. Razor thin cutoff line. I’m sticking with my 1-3. I would not be surprised within 24 hours if the precip shifts even further north.

I tend to agree as much as I don’t want too. IMO Fredericksburg to NOVA gets best accumulations.  We get  serval inches from front end then goes to sleet .

Euro OP is slightly N.  3 “ for RVA

5” near Short Pump

Evem a slight adjustment S will add major accumulations.  

I'm headed up to NYC tomorrow and will enjoy the 1-2" I see from this. I may browse, but may not post much tomorrow.

I think the Euro is more right for RIC, I would be concerned about mixing so those totals could be cut in half.

As we all expected the GFS has slowly caved.  and heaviest banding is now in Fredericksburg..  3-4 inches here for now unless we get more Shifts N 

Im guessing any hope of a last min S trend is over…

I still like 3-5"

I may be reaching but It did look like the 6z NAM came a hair S this run on R/S

There's no way any model is going to get the extent of the initial warm nose correct. Total boom or bust for Richmond. I would hedge low on the 1-2 range south of 295 in Ric. Marginal events with no antecedent cold isn't the formula.  This is a Fredericksburg to DC event.  Maybe it comes in hot with a major thump. Never know.
