interesting because the weather will be changing so much is via warmer air in it's going to transition the mix in the snow later this afternoon back to some rain but there's going to be some other issues as well including very strong winds let's talk about what to expect in general you have what that jeff referred to and i think this term is is just perfect it's a crippling storm for the central and western parts does was northern parts of virginia were talking about a system that will shut down parts of virginia as very very heavy snow is expected and it's going to be one of barry's erie and it's going to take a little while for it to recover for our area were going to see strong winds and higher than normal tides heavy rain for most of us were awesome to see a couple periods of snow one of the beginning as this moves in later this morning into the early afternoon and then again at the end i think we'll see a transition back to snow and snow showers saturday night into very early sunday morning ending sunday during the day will see big improvements in
4:45 am
look a lot better over the next twelve hours we start off with increasing clouds come in and i wanted to stop and take a picture the movie was so beautiful out there. ok so long then after today we will see it for a little while but i again as the storm system passes the clouds are going to increase and then later this morning around ten thirty eleven o'clock i expect the snow showers to really start pressing in from the southwest snow into the afternoon and then a mixer transition to rain and snow by late afternoon with rain tonight in the rain will be heavy at times we give a live picture we could shave from charlotte north carolina you can see the snow coming down there so this is what's coming will take a look right now the satellite and radar images you can see how they have the snow there in charlotte more moisture coming up a storm system will track across the region and that snow will spread into our area isn't mentioned by late morning here is ten o'clock news the metro still dry but the snow pushing down
4:46 am
into parts of northeast north carolina see northampton county down through thirteen approaching gates as we get to eleven thirty twelve o'clock the snow pushes into the south side and across the metro area's out to the west of that initially snow showers and some mixed precipitation that will continue for a little bit to end a two o'clock in the three o'clock that makes line starts to push back to the west just a little bit and we get the transition to rain later as we head into the evening now the rain is going to wash away a lot of the snow that falls so it's kind of interesting we see the snowfall projections yet keep in mind it won't be that pretty feel like that gorgeous mantle of white because the rain washes it away in the rain heavier when site will make for pretty raw conditions in themselves i was looking at tides that are on a foot to foot half above normal minor tidal flooding possible and we are near a coastal flood watch near the coast as we take a look here it is saturday moisture off to the north allow the rain some wrapping
4:47 am
air comes back in bringing about that next transition later saturday. it's in the inland areas where the snow will be more persistent that we're going to see greater amounts of snow out to the west so that's we're looking at it this saturday evening i suspect evan will be covering snow showers across year in an early sunday probably pre sunrise most of it is gone by seven o'clock skies mostly cloudy and will see increasing clouds later on sunday. what's the talk about i know and will continue to keep you updated so total snow amounts may be one to three inches across our area again some of that ol' next changeover to rain then back to snow potentially saturday night three to five inches out to the west part of the peninsula an area that around western suffolk and isle of wight to get out west of emporia to williams for five to eight inches in eight to sixteen inches around richmond even heavier miles west of that again the rain will knock down some of these totals but that's what we're
