The amount of pollen being blown around and displaced right now is borderline inhumane

Richmond clocked 87 at 3pm yesterday. Today at 3pm it is 32 with heavy snow. That is something you see in the high plains, not here. Curious if we’ve ever seen that here in recorded history.

here's my pws chart

slowing down now, but that was a fun mid-march spurt of snow!

Lol. Yeah parts of Fairfax County reporting close to 2 inches.

Pretty obvious slowing trend as well, which is dragging the timeframe to peak heating View attachment 194952

Many of us are already outlooked by the SPC for this.

I'm just not a fan of heat period let alone this early in the season just like you are not a fan of cold or cool in the spring or summer. It is what it is we sure cant change it either way.

How much is that for you this year? 16-20 inches or so?

If there’s one thing we agree on, it’s as much snow as possible until it climo wise can’t happen

Christiansburg got smoked today. Ground was completely covered(around an inch or so). It even accumulated on the roads including interstate 81, causing numerous wrecks. Was almost 80 yesterday. Got as low as 29 during thr heaviest snow.

I've tracked weather in this part of the world for most of my life. I have never seen it go literally from summer and sunshine to winter and heavy snow in just a day. The thought of Richmond getting an inch of snow a day after hitting 89 is insane. That stuff usually happens in the western plains and the east side of the Rockies.
