Not to sound cliché, but for the Richmond, area that's right where we want it really at this time. The ensembles should be very interesting.

Stormpc Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 Looks a lot like the March 1980 North Carolina blizzard. Of course this is just for fun. Very little chance that's happening but an interesting comparison 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TampaMan Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 Honestly shocked the NBC12 put out that graphic so far out. That is a backtrack waiting to happen. If it happens, good for them. If not, that’s a bad look. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wasnow215 Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 Couple of points here: 18Z European model 500 mb looks terrific. Also, since everyone has been agreeing how bad the GFS has been and most of the other models are showing a strong signal for our area, maybe the signals that show a stronger storm with all that cold air in place makes sense at this point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlewis1111 Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 How did the gfs do on our storm the other day? Exactly total dog shit. GFS the whole time was basically giving Chesterfield 10-16 inches. What we get a inch if that lol The only model il look at is the Nam. The nam nailed this past storm. Sucks I wont be able to track it til tuesday lol 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With temps around freezing, looks like it'd be a very wet snow as opposed to our pixie stick dust during the January event! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here are a couple local TV reports from the March 1980 blizzard. Look at the wind and snow drifts in the first video! @EverythingisEverything@ldub23 Also, this was back when the area was commonly called just Tidewater. I'm not sure how and even why it changed to Hampton Roads. When you leave Virginia and say it, no one even knows what it is 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is the front page of the RTD from that day. If you look closely at the top left, the blizzard warning included Richmond for "heavy and blowing snow up to 18". Don't think there's been a front page headline like this since. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Started sat am and they were predicting 1-2 inches but of course that changed quickly. ORF claimed 13.7 inches fell but it was far more than that in NN. I went out walking in ti just after it ended late SUN PM. Amazing drifts. Snow was more fun back then. No internet with model runs 4 times a day saying its too warm, too far north, too far south or too whatever. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wasnow215 Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 Icon and GFS solid for Central Va. Temps close with GFS for RVA and especially south and east. But again just these 2 models one run. CMC coming in strong also only at hour 150. Edit-CMC is a beat down for most on here! Close to if not a blizzard for some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
