The Day After. Superbowl?

We had a lot of snow reports come in. Here is a rough map of the totals:
Snow Totals
The reports from Williamsburg/Toano were around 4-5″. Don in Toano had 4.5″. Mike in Whaleyville had barely an inch. Pam in Gloucester had 5″. Jan in Reedville had 6.75″. Doris on the Lower Eastern Shore had between 3-4″.
The snow and ice caused a few accidents. Here’s a photo that serves as a reminder to slow down when the roads are slick. Not to say that this driver was speeding. This was sent in from Ed Huff from around I-64 and Jefferson Ave.

Here are some more scenic photos from around the area. This one was sent in by Tracie Cimaglio in Newport News Park:

This next photo is from Hall Road in Hampton. Check out the deer. You can actually see their eyes. Katherine Kearney took the pic:

Finally, this last photo was a geat shot of the Coleman Bridge up in Gloucester Point. Thanks Rusty West.

We’ll have a lot of sunshine today. High temperatures will only be in the lower 30s though. Winds NW 10-20mph. The sun should melt some of the ice on the roads. Overall, roads should be good tonight as you head to the Super Bowl parties. The exception will be the cities north of the metro that got over 3″ of snow.
Tonight temps will drop down to the low 20s with teens inland. Dry with upper 30s tomorrow. Rain will move in late Tuesday. We could see a little snow mix in in some northern sections early Wednesday, but I’m not too concerned about it at this time.

Any hope for something coming the week of the 15th?? I’m spoiled from the past two weeks. I want something to look forward to!
Hey do u think the snow is over this season for our area now. Is the weather pattern going to be back to normal for the rest of the season? Ive been looking at weather.gov and it looks like we shouldn’t see anymore but I am not an expert so I was wondering what u think?
I think we have a way to go before the threat for snow is over. March maybe?
I agree with Jeremy right there. March is a big time to watch. Plus I think we may still see a stray storm before the end of February. They are just giving us that break to relax with no storms. Don’t take you’re guard down otherwise we may be hit big. Haha!

Winter Storm Watch for Williamsburg for Tuesday/Wednseday!!
Bring it on!!
It’ll be our 4th snow day coming up
WPAAAH somebody explain to me why williamsburg is under a winter storm watch!?!? what made the models change?? someone tell me!!
I hope I wake up tomorrow with a drastic change in the forecasts! [Not likely, I know, but i still like to hold onto that small little possibility
]
Mayb the Canadian high will really shifts things farther to the south…
I saw last night at 5 the the talk of freezing rain today from about Southampton and Surry Counties and points west – is this still the case for later today?
What is the weather looking like for this evein into tomorrow (wednesday)?? When will we be seeing the snow? if any.
