Make your voice heard at the Virginia State Capitol this Saturday (4/19)! Tell Trump to go stuff it! Re-post if you are in central Virginia.

What a great experience today as our AMS chapter toured the National Weather Service Office in Wakefield, VA! Meteorologist Mike Montefusco briefed us on the operations of their facility and gave us a tour of the center.

I am sooooo snakebit by all these long range models showing big snows for Richmond. The last one had models showing 8-12 the very morning of the storm, only to end up with 1-3 across the metro area. My rule of thumb for central VA snow forecasts: I'll believe it when I'm shoveling it. 😒

That's a pretty interesting dewpoint right there. 🤔 Gonna be a close call for Richmond's NW suburban areas. Guess we'll see! Regional radar not showing much at the moment. A little bit showing up just to the N, but may not be reaching the ground. At 7PM in Wyndham, VA: Thin overcast & 38°.

Now that, right there, is what'cha call a rollercoaster ride! 🥴

Smidge over 2", on top of residual melted/compacted snow from last week, gives us about 3.5" cover here in the western Richmond,VA suburbs of Henrico County at Wyndham. A little disappointing, but considering the last several years, I guess I can't be too choosy. Fresh snow lifts my spirit so much!

Yeah, that's about how this is looking to play out. 🙄

Plenty of stuff going on this weekend in Henrico!

The high-tech Henrico Weather climatological monitoring station is read for the Christmas season, and all the weather nature can throw at us! At 4PM in Richmond, VA's far western suburbs: Clear and 44°.

Had a good time at our annual holiday dinner for the Central Virginia Chapter of the American Meteorological Society last night!

At least one small part of the universe remains in equilibrium. 😏 That's 19 out of the last 20. 🏆

First hard freeze came very late in the season for our part of the Richmond, VA metro area. Looks like we'll continue the trend over the next several days with low temps in the 20s and teens. At 10AM under sunny skies in Wyndham, VA, temp has risen to 35°.

Huge crowds at Busch Gardens tonight. First stop: Fake Ireland for a real beer! At 5PM in Williamsburg, VA: Mostly cloudy and 47°.

This time of year, I like to point out the fraud that those charlatans in Massachusetts like to foist upon us re: the "first" Thanksgiving. It should be noted; the first English Thanksgiving in the New World was held 2 years earlier at Berkeley Plantation, VA. berkeleyplantation.com/https://berk...

Grabbed my shot glass to make myself an after work drink, and this little horror was waiting for me. 😵

Dear Bluesky users: PUH-LEEZE put something in your profile to let people know a little about you. Doesn't have to be much - your town, your interest, your college affiliation, your favorite animal... ~something~ that would help distinguish you other than just a name. Help me want to follow you!
