My guess is TowsonWeather. He just comes on here to yell at people on the RIC form. It’s time for you to take him behind the woodshed.

LOL...I've been a member on here for almost 15 years. I've not once - ever - made disparaging comments about Richmond or folks down south. And yet all it took was me pointing out (in ONE thread) that multiple Richmond/VA posters were the ones being bitchy and snarky and telling the group that makes up 90%+ of this forum to "cry more" and y'all immediately double down with more of that weird cocktail of defensiveness and gloating over digital snow. And that's toward someone that's always been vocal about cheering for our southern friends when they jackpot. 

Weird behavior, tbh.

I'll continue hoping we all enjoy deep drifts of snow, and you can continue being insecure, hyper-defensive weirdos.

LWX updated forecast discussion …

Winter Storm Watches coming shortly South of I66/Rt 50

.SHORT TERM /MONDAY THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/...
Benign weather conditions expected Monday as an area of surface high 
pressure over the OH Valley slides east across PA/NJ, and into the 
western Atlantic. On and off clouds throughout the day, though dry 
conditions prevail. Highs in the 40s, with 30s in the mountains.

An active weather pattern ensues for the middle portion of the week 
as several waves of low pressure bring wintry precipitation to the 
area starting Tuesday. 

From a synoptic look, flow aloft remains purely zonal over the 
eastern CONUS. The confluence of the northern and southern branch 
jet streams will create an impressive jet stream over the OH Valley 
to PA/NY/southern New England. Several fast moving waves of low 
pressure aloft ride along just south of the jet streak. At the 
surface, several associated areas of low pressure move from the Deep 
South to the lower Mid-Atlantic, then out to sea. 

The main concern on Tuesday will be the temperatures, which are 
currently forecast to be in the mid to upper 30s. The surface high 
to our north falls apart as it moves into the Atlantic, weakening 
the source region of cold air into our area. This makes the p-type 
forecast tricky for daytime Tuesday. It is possible that snow 
struggles to accumulate over most of the area, unless marginal temps 
are overcome by high precip rates. This seems most likely along the 
I-64 corridor, but model guidance is still uncertain on where the 
high precip rates occur Tuesday. Nonetheless, precipitation is 
forecast to begin as all snow Tuesday morning over the southwest 
CWA, then spread northeast through the afternoon.

Cooling temperatures Tuesday evening into Tuesday night, combined 
with steady precipitation, is forecast to produce accumulating snow 
across the entire area. Warm air advection aloft along and south of 
the surface frontal zone could cause p-type to transition to 
freezing rain (possibly mixed with snow) over the central Shenandoah 
Valley and parts of Central VA.

Through Tuesday night, the current forecast is for 3-5" of snow, 
with higher totals up to 6-7 possible". Where confidence is highest, 
a Winter Storm Watch will be issued shortly, along/south of I-66/US-
50. Additional considerations for Watch expansion, and issuances of 
Winter Weather Advisories is expected tonight into tomorrow. Stay 
tuned to the latest updates at weather.gov/lwx/winter.

I wish they’d get their maps straight, because their same site has the best possibility of >6” along and north of 66. But whatever. I’m sure some are computer generated and these are labeled as experimental… just moderately annoyed at the inconsistency

I can’t agree with this more. It’s just odd, nothing seems to match.
