I have been watching the forcast for Virginia....my family and I are coming to massenutten at the end of Feb. and the outlook is not so good...does anyone have better news????? 
long range forecasts are for continued normal to cold temps.
short range forecast is for this:
THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IN STERLING VIRGINIA HAS ISSUED A
HEAVY SNOW WARNING...WHICH IS IN EFFECT FROM 6 AM SATURDAY TO
6 AM EST SUNDAY. THE SNOW ADVISORY IS NO LONGER IN EFFECT.
LOW PRESSURE LOCATED ALONG THE GULF COAST THIS EVENING WILL TRACK NORTHEAST TO THE NORTH CAROLINA COAST SATURDAY EVENING. SNOW WILL DEVELOP SATURDAY MORNING FROM SOUTHWEST TO NORTHEAST. THE HEAVIEST SNOW IS EXPECTED TO OCCUR FROM LATE SATURDAY AFTERNOON INTO SATURDAY NIGHT.
BEFORE SNOW ENDS EARLY SUNDAY MORNING...TOTAL SNOWFALL IS EXPECTED TO BE 4 TO 8 INCHES...WITH UP TO 10 INCHES POSSIBLE IN THE
CENTRAL SHENANDOAH VALLEY AND LOCATIONS SUCH AS CHARLOTTESVILLE
AND FREDERICKSBURG.
A HEAVY SNOW WARNING MEANS SEVERE WINTER WEATHER CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED OR OCCURRING. SIGNIFICANT AMOUNTS OF SNOW ARE FORECAST THAT WILL MAKE TRAVEL DANGEROUS. AVOID UNNECESSARY TRAVEL. ALWAYS CARRY A WINTER SAFETY KIT WITH EMERGENCY SUPPLIES IF YOU MUST TRAVEL IN A SNOWSTORM.
