13 NOSE
13 NOSE NOW BEGINS STORM MODE AND THIS IS WHY WINTER WEATHER ACROSS THE REGION AND FOR MANY
OF US THAT MEANT SNOW
>> WE'RE ON THE ROAD TONIGHT
AND THE STORM MODE SUV ROUGH
ROADS MEANS NO SCHOOL TOMORROW
FOR THOUSANDS OF STUDENTS AND A
3 DAY WEEKEND FOR THE ADULTS IN
SOME
>> SPOTS IT'S A WINTER
WONDERLAND OTHERS WELL NOT SO
MUCH. A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE GOING
TO WAKE UP EITHER DISAPPOINTED
OR DELIGHTED OVER THE LACK OF
IT. WE ARE IN STORM MODE AT
11:00 THANKS FOR TRUSTING US TO
KEEP YOU UPDATED. I'M DAVID.
>> AND I'M NICOLE LIVES. LET'S
GET RIGHT TO IT. OUR WEATHER
TECHNOLOGY IS BUILT FOR
SITUATIONS JUST LIKE THIS TO
KEEP YOUR FAMILY SAFE AND
INFORMED
>> A FULL STORM TEAM COVERAGE
FOR YOU TONIGHT. THESE GUYS ARE
OUT THERE IN THE ELEMENTS
CHECKING THINGS OUT SO YOU
DON'T HAVE TO. WE'LL HEAR FROM
THEM IN JUST A BIT. BUT FIRST
LET'S START WITH THE CHIEF
>> YEAH LOTS TO TALK ABOUT. IN
FACT RIGHT NOW LET'S LOOK AT
SKYPE. THAT'S THE FIRST THING
WE'RE GONNA DO. YOU CAN SEE IT
BEHIND ME. WE CAN TAKE IT FULL
SCREEN VERY REDUCED VISIBILITY
BECAUSE OF HEAVY SNOW THAT IS
BLOWING
>> AND CONTINUING ACROSS THE
ENTIRE REGION LOOK AT THIS MAP.
>> ALMOST ALL OF US WITH A FEW
EXCEPTIONS DOWN THE SOUTH
SEEING SNOW AND IT IS SNOWING
AS I MENTIONED PRETTY HEAVILY
AS WELL. SO WE'LL ZOOM IN ON A
COUPLE OF AREAS. LOOK AT THAT
BAND. THIS IS WHAT I HAVE
HIGHLIGHTED THE BACK EDGE OF
THIS BAND THAT HEAVY BAND STILL
ROLLING ACROSS PARTS OF SOUTH
SIDE AND HEADING OFF SHORE SO
THE BACKSIDE OF IT THE
PENINSULA WHAT YOU'VE SEEN IS
PRETTY MUCH WHAT YOU'RE GONNA
GET THERE'S A LITTLE BIT OUT
HERE STILL TO THE WEST PLACES
AROUND WAVERLY FOR EXAMPLE IN
SUSSEX. THAT IS GOING TO MOVE
TO THE SOUTH AND EAST A LITTLE
BIT ON THE EASTERN SHORE BUT
THIS IS THE LAST OF THE SIGNET
BANDS THAT IS ROLLING THROUGH
PARTS OF SOUTH SIDE. NOW AGAIN
WE SAID SOME SPOTS YOU KNOW
YOU'RE GOING TO BE UNHAPPY WITH
WHAT HAPPENED. GENERALLY WHAT
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT IS THIS
AREA THE EAST SIDE OF THE
PENINSULA HAMPTON MAYBE
POQUOSON DOWN THROUGH
PORTSMOUTH NORFOLK DOWN INTO
MOST OF VIRGINIA BEACH A LITTLE
BIT OF CHESAPEAKE WITH THAT
NORTHERLY WIND
>> THEN SAYING FOR THE LAST
COUPLE OF HOURS IT ENDED UP IN
THE COASTAL LOCATIONS JUST TO
WARM YOU SAY WELL EASTERN
SHORES OF COASTAL LOCATION
OUTCOME IT'S NOT TOO WARM
THERE. LOOK AT THE WIND OUT OF
THE NORTH COMES LITERALLY FROM
MARYLAND. OCEAN CITY PLACES
LIKE THAT STRAIGHT DOWN NEVER
CROSSES OVER THE WARM WATER. SO
YOU HAVE STAYED COLD ENOUGH ON
THE EASTERN SHORE. BUT THEN
WHEN IT COMES OVER THE WATERS
OF THE BAY IT HAS BEEN INDEED
TOO WARM JUST
>> FOR THAT SMALL PERCENTAGE
OF THE AREA BUT WHERE A BIG
PERCENTAGE OF THE PEOPLE LIVE.
SO RIGHT NOW IT IS 36 DEGREES
AT NORFOLK
>> EVERYWHERE THAT'S 34 BELOW.
IT HAS BEEN SNOWING AND SNOWING
HEAVILY AND EVEN RIGHT NOW IN
VIRGINIA BEACH SOME HEAVY SNOW.
HERE ARE SOME OF THE CURRENT
TEMPERATURES SO EVEN THOUGH
WE'RE GOING TO ADD TO SOME OF
THE TOTALS. TIM STAND BY OVER
THERE WITH A LOOK AT HOW MUCH
WE'VE SEEN SO FAR EVEN THOUGH
AGAIN IT'S GOING TO ADD UP A
LITTLE BIT MORE IN A FEW SPOTS.
>> JEFF WE HAVE SOME TOTALS
FROM ACROSS THE REGION 5 INCHES
AND SADLY SO FAR FRANKLIN JUST
OVER FOR GLOUCESTER COMING IN
WITH ABOUT 4 INCHES OF SNOWFALL
ON THE GROUND HAYS IN VIRGINIA
3 INCHES WILLIAMSBURG UP TO 3
WINDSOR AT 3 GATES NORTH
CAROLINA AT 3 INCHES 2 AND A
HALF OUT IN SMITHFIELD SLIGHTLY

GROUND OUT THERE RIGHT NOW
SLUSHY ALMOST INCH OUT THERE
BUT STILL SOME MORE COMING
>> ON DOWN. HERE'S JEFF TAKE
US THROUGH THE REST OF THE
FORECAST AS WE
>> HEAD INTO TOMORROW MORNING.
ALL RIGHT. LIKE I SAID INLAND
AREAS IT IS SNOWING AND SNOWING
STILL IN A LOT OF SPOTS FAIRLY
HEAVILY AND THAT'S WHAT'S BEEN
FRUSTRATING WE LOOK AT HOW
HEAVY THE SNOW HAS BEEN
FALLING. AND IF IT HAD JUST
STUCK. WE'VE HAD ABOUT 5 INCHES
IN DOWNTOWN NORFOLK SO FAR JUST
TURNED OUT TO BE A DEGREE
>> OR 2 TO WARM UNFORTUNATELY
BUT AGAIN ONCE YOU GOT NORTH AT
ALL OR INLAND THESE
TEMPERATURES ALLOWING IT TO
STICK. WE'LL BE BACK WITH A LOT
MORE COMING UP IN JUST A COUPLE
OF MINUTES
>> STORM
>> COVERAGE CONTINUES HOW THE
NEXT 24 HOURS WILL PLAY OUT
WILL LARGELY DEPEND ON HOW
THOSE ROADS ARE. THAT'S WHY
WE'RE WATCHING CLOSELY TONIGHT.
WE STOPPED BY THE VIRGINIA
BEACH PUBLIC WORKS YARD A
LITTLE WHILE AGO CREWS WERE
THERE FILLING TRUCKS WITH SAND
GETTING READY TO
>> RESPOND. LET'S GET TO
MEGHAN PER YEAR IN SUFFOLK.
SHE'S LIVE TONIGHT AS THE STORM
OLD SUV ROLLS ON. MEGHAN
>> HI GUYS WE WE'VE BEEN ALL
OVER TONIGHT. WE WENT TO
NORFOLK BACK TO NORTH CAROLINA
VIRGINIA BEACH. NOW WE'RE IN
SUFFOLK. TAKE PEAK HERE AT SOME
OF THE ROAD CONDITIONS WE'RE
SEEING RIGHT NOW AS WE'RE
DRIVING. IT'S A LOT OF WHAT TIM
WAS SAYING ABOUT THAT SLUSH THE
SNOW HAS BEEN FALLING FOR A
NUMBER OF HOURS NOW. BUT YOU
CAN SEE STILL SEE IT'S STEADY
WE'RE SEEING A LOT OF THAT
SLUSH ON THE GROUND. WE HAVEN'T
SEEN MUCH SNOW ACCUMULATING ON
THE ROADS THOUGH FOR THE MOST
PART A LOT OF THE SNOWFALL IS
TURNING TO WATER AND SLUSH ONCE
IT HITS THE GROUND. AFTER THAT
EVENING RUSH CONGESTION CLEARED
UP MANY PEOPLE STAYED OFF THE
ROADS AND OVER PUBLIC WORKS AT
VIRGINIA BEACH SPOKESMAN
LANGFORD SAYS HIS CREW WILL
SPEND THE NIGHT TREATING THE
MOST IMPORTANT ROADS WITH SALT
AND SAND.
>> THE FIRST
>> THING WE HIT ROADS TO THE
FIRE STATIONS IN THE HOSPITALS
SCHOOLS ARE PLANNED WILL BE
OPEN TOMORROW. JUST A 2 HOUR
DELAY SO WE'VE GOT MAKE SURE
WE'VE GOT EVERYTHING CLEARED SO
THEY CAN GET IN AND OUT AND
THEN WE HAVE ROADS THAT HAVE A
13 ROADS WHAT WE CALL THE
PRIMARY ROADS WE TAKE CARE OF
THEM AND THEN TRY AND GET IN
SOME OF THE SECONDARY
>> ROADS LIKE PRINCE SAID THAT
IF YOU CAN AVOID DRIVING IN THE
MORNING THAT WOULD BE BEST BUT
IF YOU HAVE TO GET IN AND TAKE
THAT COMMUTE TO WORK TO TRY TO
STAY WITHIN THE PUBLIC WORKS
TRUCKS AS THEY TREAT THE ROADS
THROUGHOUT THE MORNING LOTS OF
ACCOMACK PURYEAR MEGHAN THANK
YOU. LET'S GET REAL IF YOU ARE
FROM A PLACE WHERE IT SNOWS
JUST BE SAFE OUT THERE DRIVING.
IF YOU'RE NOT IT'S TIME FOR A
>> QUICK REFRESHER PREVAILING
WISDOM SAYS TO STAY PUT
TONIGHT. BUT IF
>> YOU HAVE TO HEAD OUT THE
EXPERTS SAY TO LEAVE
>> CRUISE CONTROL OFF. YOU'LL
ALSO WANT TO LEAVE A LOT OF
ROOM BETWEEN YOU AND THE CAR IN
FRONT OF YOU. THAT WAY YOU HAVE
ENOUGH ROOM IF YOU NEED TO STOP
QUICKLY AND IF YOU FIND
YOURSELF IN A SKID. STEER
>> INTO IT TO REGAIN CONTROL.
BUT BEFORE YOU GO ANYWHERE IT
MAKE SURE YOU HAVE AN EMERGENCY
KIT. YOU SHOULD HAVE SOME FOOD
WATER AND ICE SCRAPER. NO 1
PLANS ON HAVING AN ACCIDENT BUT
PREPARE FOR THE WORST. IF YOU
HAVE AN OLD BLANKET TOSS IT IN
THE TRUNK. IT'S ALSO A GOOD
IDEA TO HAVE AN EXTRA PHONE
CHARGER AND A FLASHLIGHT.
>> WE'RE SEEING A LOT OF SNOW
COVERED LAWNS ON THE PENINSULA.
THE
>> GOOD NEWS IS THE ROADS FOR
THE MOST PART ARE CLEAR. THIS
IS BRAND NEW VIDEO WE JUST GOT
IN FROM HAMPTON FLAKES FALLING
ALONG VERY BUSY MERCURY

BUNDLED UP BUT SNOW COVERED
LAWNS RIGHT SNOW COVERED
SIDEWALKS SOME SLUSH ON THE
ROADS LIKE MEGHAN HE SAID TAKE

SNOW OVER HERE IN THE GRASS TO
MAKE A SNOWBALL SO WE'RE
GETTING SOME HERE AND HAMPTON
AGAIN NOT STICKING ON THE
ROADS. BUT IT'S STICKING HERE
IN THE GRASS SPOKE WITH A
COUPLE OF DRIVERS TODAY. THEY
DIDN'T REALLY KNOW HOW TO
PREPARE FOR THIS WINTER STORM
THE FLURRIES FELL FOR HOURS AS
LONG AS IT DOESN'T STICK. I'M
GOOD WITH IT. IN THE END IT WAS
MORE OF A WET COMMUTE IN
NEWPORT NEWS AND HAMPTON. MANY
PEOPLE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO
EXPECT
>> WELL 1 OF THE THINGS I WAS
THINKING IS MY GARDEN IS JUST
STARTING TO COME OUT AFTER ALL
OF THIS AFTER ALL THIS WARM
WEATHER AND WHAT WHAT WILL
HAPPEN THERE. CRISTINA BERTA
ROSA MOVED HERE FROM THE NORTH.
WE HAD BEEN LIVING IN BOSTON
AND THE LONGER WE LEFT BOSTON
THERE WERE 28 INCHES OF SNOW ON
APRIL 1ST. THE APRIL FOOL'S DAY
SNOWSTORM CARS AND GRASS
COLLECTED MUCH OF THE WINTER
MIX. IT'S JUST FREEZING
AFTERWARDS AND A DROP IN
TEMPERATURES THAT REALLY
CONCERNS ME AND GETTING OUT ON
THE ROADS IN THE BLACK ICE. BUT
ROSA SAYS ALTHOUGH SHE LIVED
THROUGH MASSIVE SNOWSTORMS SHE
MOVED TO VIRGINIA TO GET AWAY
FROM IT NICE LIGHT PRETTY
DUSTING IS IS FINE THERE. BUT
ANYTHING MORE THAN THAT IS A
LITTLE MORE THAN I WOULD CARE
TO DO. YES NO MAY NOT BE
STICKING ON THE ROAD BUT YOU
CAN SEE IT STICKING EVERYWHERE
ELSE. LOOK AT THIS POINT RIGHT
