Maps, Updates: Major Winter Storm Fern Bears Down on Virginia; Potential for Heavy Snow, Sleet, Ice This Weekend

0

I’m going to use this post to provide updates on Winter Storm Fern, specifically with regards to its potential (and actual, once it starts) impacts on Virginia. Some meteorologists (in addition to the National Weather Service, of course) and other weather-related sites I follow include: Matthew Cappucci, Capital Weather Gang, Doug Kammerer, Blue Ridge Weather, Matt DiNardo, WxRisk.com, Justin Berk, Jay’s Wintry Mix, the Weather Channel, etc.).

P.S. Since this is a political website, it’s worth mentioning that this storm could make it very difficult for legislators to get back and forth from Richmond early next week. Also, this will be the first big weather-related test for Gov. Spanberger’s administration…

  • Noon Wednesday update:

  • So…as of 10:30 am Wednesday, according to Justin Berk: “Sunday Morning = Heavy Snow!”; “Sunday Afternoon/Evening Ice spreading northward into Maryland”; “Schools likely to be closed as a realist on Monday and cleanup will be slow into Tuesday with temps remaining well below freezing.”
