Probably a good time to sleep! Looks like a decent break between now & around 6am in this area..

 

guessing it’s around 3 inches here in my part of Glen Allen but I could be wrong … I could see about the same added later today . (If we get lucky) kinda right on that line here ..(could get nothing) so will see.. This weekend looks to be interesting too, but not ready to talk about that yet until this one is over…

Unfortunately it’s just rain @ freezing rain here in my part of Glen Allen near short pump… 

I don’t expect it to turn over again until later this afternoon… 

this is going to cause major icing issues when this all freezes over later tonight especially on back roads and side streets…

prob will be power issues in spots but hard to say how major that will be depending on where the temperatures stay around

Yeah, thankfully that break between noon to around 6pm will be a key time to get allot of places plowed & to avoid major icing issues on most of the main roads & other side roads … Whatever doesn't and has snow fall on top will be pretty treacherous once it all freezes over again…

Would be nice if we can get another 1-3 inches especially since some is being washed away now…

I'm really happy for the Richmond folks doing well in this storm. I lived in that area for ten years and it killed me in 2010 when the DC area got obliterated with snow. I lived 40+ years in Arlington. Now living in the Lynchburg area for 8.5 years it really hasn't been better than Richmond. The snow game is a cruel mistress in the mid-Atlantic.

They closed the schools  here for  wet roads. What a  joke. Im sure nearer RIC there  is  ice  on roads. None  here at all

Icy roads here in western Henrico. Slipped getting my work computer out of the car. Not sure what it’s like in the city. Expecting another 1-2 inches later on top of this will cause issues tomorrow morning due to the much colder air tonight. Heard a few transformers pop.

We (Currituck) have a 2 hour delay because of rain.  At least it snowed a bit by you. Maybe you luck into an inch tonight so that tomorrow's commute is a mess. That's more impactful than this AM. You're going to get yours saturday.

They closed for rain here as well. Tonight might  be worse  because temps will drop after any snow that falls. Sat will be a slopfest at  best.
