Weve had again heavy precipitation come through at times and i mentioned earlier how the snowflakes will clump together into one giant snowflake and yet just massive amounts of these things popping quite literally onto the ground abroad about three quarters of an inch where i was half an inch to three quarters of an inch in Virginia Beach and as i drove and the closer i got to norfolk the more the roads were so right now the winds really picking up sustained at twenty six mph gusts right now up into the thirties theyre going to get Even Stronger tonight freezing quite literally right at thirty two but tempers will go only up from here. Eleven oclock there was just grass showing their Town Point Park by noon it was already starting to be covered with snow of course now remains the same thing to show you this this is the forecast through this evening were already at this evening right but im so proud of this that i just want to go back again because this is what weve been saying for two days now maybe even three and this is almost perfect for what weve seen so far id talk more about how much more were going to get in just a second but lets talk about some of the amounts right now with ie show over there in the weather lab yet women keep an eye on those amounts and definitely we want you to reach and reach out to us to give us more mounts a witch are saying out there at the area so heres what we have so far in the good news at this time out so far in some areas where we have seen and a half inches franklin a two point eight two point three inches and weight phil and weve seen an inch and a half and suffered a little bit our lower totals on the southside has over a half of an inch because again we sort of saw that ive not become as heavy on the south side as we did across central and northern portions of virginia will keep an eye on twitter and keep sending us those amounts will continue to update this board as we go throughout the show. Jeff thanks a share right now temperatures as we said freezing in norfolk chesapeake doherty up to thirty six talk to evan down and sort of central chesapeake.

Richmond is sorta on that dividing line but look where the storm is located early tomorrow morning were not going to have a lot of precipitation tomorrow at least in the metro areas the farther north and west you go youll get that mix thatll change over to some snow around the metro areas the later in the day we go the more of a mix we get and temperatures i think will be dropping back into the mid thirties and thatll give us some periods of snow tomorrow night i would see in general another one to three inches as we go tomorrow late today and tomorrow night. Some of the northern Western Areas its a williamsburg north youre going to have even some higher amounts than that because itll change over much more quickly so we had a lot to go through with the storm also high tides that continues to run through talking about those earlier spot forecast for tomorrow the mid thirties by Late Afternoon after starting the new and spotless a forty five for the official temperature in the morning thirty five for an afternoon temperature twenty six saturday night with those periods of snow one to three inches for most areas and then by monday tuesday we start to warm up before another storm late next week that could bring us a bit of a mix again by thursday at the latest from the Weather Authority. Id imagine being outside in this storm with nowhere to go ntuc was coming up next to janet is one womans heart warming efforts to help Homeless Children and one you i drive a golf ball. I drive to the hoop. I drive a racecar. I have a driver. His name is carl. But thats not what we all have in common. We talked to our doctors about treatment with xarelto. Xarelto is proven to treat and help reduce the risk of dvt and pe blood clots. Xarelto is also proven to reduce the risk of stroke in people with afib, not caused by a heart valve problem. For people with afib currently well managed on warfarin, there is limited information on how xarelto and warfarin compare in reducing the risk of stroke. Blood testing routine. I couldnt have a healthy salad whenever i wanted. I found another way. Yeah, treatment with xarelto. Hey, safety first. Like all blood thinners, dont stop taking xarelto without talking to your doctor, as this may increase your risk of a blood clot or stroke. While taking, you may bruise more easily and it may take longer for bleeding to stop. Xarelto may increase your risk of bleeding if you take certain medicines. Xarelto can cause serious and in rare cases, fatal bleeding. Get help right away for unexpected bleeding, unusual bruising, or tingling. If you have had spinal anesthesia while on xarelto , watch for back pain or any nerve or muscle related signs or symptoms. Do not take xarelto if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. Tell your doctor before all planned medical or dental procedures. Before starting xarelto , tell your doctor about any kidney, liver, or bleeding problems. Xarelto is the number one prescribed blood thinner in its class. Well that calls for a round of kevin nealons. Make mine an arnold palmer. Same here. With xarelto there is no regular blood monitoring and no known dietary restrictions. Treatment with xarelto was the right move for us. Welcome back everyone she doesnt want anyone stuck outside at night especially on a night like this that jamie added she has an incredible story.
