RICHMOND, Va. β Skies will be mostly sunny, highs will be in the upper 20s and lower 30s Thursday, before colder air arrives heading into the weekend.
Thursday night temperatures will drop to around 10 degrees. The ice from Sunday's storm is not going away anytime soon.
A winter storm watch is in effect from Friday night through Sunday for areas south of Richmond to the state line. The watch covers the potential for accumulating snow and wind gusts up to 35 mph.
Our computer models continue to show the potential for a storm off the coast this weekend. Each model shows a different proximity to the East Coast. The closer the storm is to the coast, the more snow we will receive. However, some models keep the storm far southeast of our area, which would mean minimal snow accumulation here, but heavier amounts near Norfolk.
Please ignore any raw snowfall accumulation maps posted online. Those same maps had 20+ inches of snow for our storm last weekend.
A few snow flurries are possible in Central Virginia later Friday, but the main storm system won't reach Richmond until Saturday during the day.
Winds will increase on Sunday as the system moves through.
Temperatures will remain very cold through the weekend and into next week.
Stay tuned for updated forecasts for the weekend.
