This won't be like last Friday's snow; we've been cold enough over the last week that there's no real worries about any melting with this system. A fast-moving low, called a clipper, is going to scoot through Virginia beginning later this morning; snow will spread out across the state beginning later this morning. </p><p>Here's a look at what to expect around Richmond.</p><p class = "hr">&mdash; ∮∮∮ &mdash;</p><h2>How much?</h2><p>Generally less than two inches over most of the area--and likely less than an inch. </p><p>The National Weather Service has posted a <a href="http://mesonet.agron.iastate.edu/vtec/#2013-O-NEW-KAKQ-WW-Y-0003/USCOMP-N0Q-0">Winter Weather Advisory</a> for this system; it will be in effect from 1:00 - 10:00 PM today. </p><h2>How will this compare to last Friday's snow?</h2><p>Other than the fact that they both will produce snow, there's not much in common between these two storms. Last Friday's storm started out as rain and switched to snow as cold air moved in. Temperatures were very close to freezing, so the snow produced was of the heavy, wet, snowball-making variety. Today's system won't have any rain mixed in, and the snow today will be light and fluffy--and sadly, not at all good for fun things like snowmen and snowballs. It will be much easier to clean off your car, however.</p><h2>When will the snow start?</h2><p>Mid-afternoon looks like the best bet right now, somewhere around 3:00 - 4:00 PM. Since everything has been so cold this week, the snow will begin to stick virtually immediately. Roads will get slick quickly, too, so take it easy once it starts falling.</p><p class = "hr">&mdash; ∮∮∮ &mdash;</p><p>Tag your snow pictures with #rvasnow!</p><p><br />Ho there, reader of RSS feeds!
