Tuesday Morning Update 8:20AM

A snow and sleet mix is currently falling in Richmond, including at CBS 6 on West Broad Street. The leading edge of the precipitation is moving into southeast parts of the Metro at this time. As this line passes your location, you can expect precipitation starting as rain, then a brief period of freezing rain with some ice accumulation as your temperature falls to freezing, becoming sleet and then snow. There will still be some sleet and rain mixed in with the snow at times this morning in the Richmond area. The previously described boundaries in the state for precipitation type today still hold true (see previous blog postings).

Tuesday Morning Update 7AM

At 7 a.m. Tuesday morning, the temperature in Richmond (33 degrees at the airport) is hovering around the freezing mark, and the leading edge of precipitation is from Hanover to Goochland to Lynchburg. In North-central and Northwest Virginia, the precipitation is falling as sleet and snow. From around Lynchburg and south, the precipitation is falling as rain primarily. I expect a snow/sleet/rain mix to move into the Richmond metro area within the hour. Whatever rain falls to surfaces that are at or below freezing, will freeze on contact. This will lead to some ice accumulation. The precipitation will be light at first, but gradually become moderate through the morning hours as the leading edge pushes into Southeast Virginia.
