Another coastal storm will impact the Mid-Atlantic on Saturday. It will be too warm when everything gets going for any snow over much of the region. So right now a cold rain is the call for Saturday morning and afternoon in and around Richmond. There could be a mix of rain and snow well west of Interstate 95, where temperatures and conditions will be more ripe for wintry precipitation.
By later in the day, the storm will begin to pull north-northeast, bringing even colder air into central Virginia. Even though the storm will be moving away from us, there will be a good batch of upper level energy that still has to rotate through from the west, so precipitation chances will continue Saturday night. It's then that I think we could see a swath of snow over much of the region. Since it will be nighttime and temperatures will be lowering through the 30s, accumulation could be a possibility (at least on grassy surfaces, decks, etc.). So stay tuned for further updates!
