The following weather brief comes
from Jeff Orrock, Meteorologist in Charge for NWS Wakefield:
Attached is our latest thinking regarding the
light snow Friday morning, mainly north of I-64 and across MD, and the more
significant winter storm likely Saturday.
There is still quite a bit of
uncertainty regarding the Saturday snow forecast. It is not clear exactly how
much snow will fall and how far inland the heavier snow will extend. There will
be a sharp cut off in snow amounts somewhere across the western Tidewater and
south Central VA. Should the storm track closer to the coast, higher snow
totals would edge closer to Richmond.
What we are fairly sure of:
Increasing confidence in significant snow across southeast VA and northeast NC
For Norfolk… Saturday forecast shows 3 to 4 inches in Norfolk, but
could go to 4 to 6 inches. Expect forecast amounts to change some in time.
Snow will accumulate quickly Saturday
morning.
Temperatures will be very cold with lows in the teens and highs at or below freezing from Saturday through Monday.
More in the way of preparatory actions and messaging to come in the morning!
