Tuesday Morning Update 3:30AM

Light snow continues to move into the southern half of Virginia early Tuesday morning, with light snow being reported from Petersburg to Farmville and south into North Carolina. At 3 a.m., light snow was falling at Emporia, Danville, Norfolk, Lynchburg, and Blacksburg. Light snow was also falling over the Richmond metro area, but most is evaporating before it reaches the ground at this time.

This light snowfall will continue to spread northeastward into Southern and Central Virginia Tuesday morning, with the highest accumulations of 3" to 5" expected south of a line from Emporia to Smithfield. South of a line from South Hill to Petersburg to Melfa, I expect 2" to 3" snow accumulation by the end of Tuesday. From Danville, to Farmville, to the Richmond metro, to the Northern Neck and points south, I expect only light accumulations up to 1" to 2" at most. North of these locations, only a dusting is possible.

I will post updates here through the morning!
