Quick update on the approaching storm...

My thoughts haven't changed at all regarding the impending storm.  Rain will increase in coverage and intensity across the region tonight.  Tomorrow, the rain will eventually mix with and change to wet snow, although rain could mix in through the afternoon from Metro RIC and points east. 

Accumulation in the Metro will be minimal at best.  With luck, the Metro might get an inch or two, but I wouldn't be surprised to see many places from Metro RIC south without any snow on the ground.  The farther north and west you go, the greater the risk of significant snowfall, particularly north and west of a line from Ashland to central Goochland.  The winners in all this (for snow lovers) will be the favored areas from Charlottesville up through the Shenandoah Valley and north to DC.
