Few Flurries Possible Monday Afternoon

Light snow showers and flurries continue to try to reach the ground Monday mid-day in much of Central Virginia. However, the precipitation is often evaporating before it can reach the ground, thanks to the dry air near the surface. Still, some flakes will make it all the way to the ground, but will not accumulate with temperatures well above freezing.

Winds are also a bit gusty Monday afternoon up to around 25 mph from the North. This is keeping wind chills about five to ten degrees below the actual air temperatures.

After looking at the latest data, it still appears likely that much of the Commonwealth will receive rain showers Wednesday. Best-case scenario for rain totals will run a quarter to near a half inch of rainfall, but will likely be less than that for most locations.
