Richmond, VA – Confidence is increasing for a round of accumulating snow across portions of eastern Virginia on Sunday, according to the National Weather Service (NWS) in Wakefield, VA.
Forecasters say 1–2 inches of snow are likely across the Virginia Northern Neck and Maryland Eastern Shore, with around 0.5–1 inch possible along the I-64 Corridor. Areas farther south may see lesser amounts. A Winter Weather Advisory has already been issued for the Northern Neck and MD Eastern Shore.
According to the NWS, snowfall is expected to begin Sunday afternoon and continue through early evening. However, forecasters note there’s still uncertainty in the storm track and temperature profile, which could impact accumulation totals.
In a “high-end” scenario, if the system strengthens, up to 3 inches of snow could fall in parts of the area. Even minor accumulations may cause slick spots on grassy surfaces, bridges, and untreated roads, especially during the evening commute.
Temperatures will hover near freezing, which could limit how efficiently snow accumulates, particularly during the daytime hours.
Residents are urged to monitor forecast updates through the weekend as advisories could expand if conditions change.
