Cool! I wish the James River and Hampton Roads were included in this graphic!
** Chesapeake Bay is Freezing Up! **
📷 Look at these drone pics of the icy Chesapeake Bay.
🧊 Also pictured -- the latest ice map from the U.S. National Ice Center; some Bay waters are more than 90% ice covered.
Many thanks to Lane Purvis for the photos, taken yesterday from above Kent Island.

Quickie look at the weather data for RVA this afternoon suggests snow still likely this weekend, but the really serious stuff is a near miss.

Snow Search for RVA:
Colder next week, and watching for a weak system to approach from the southwest on Thursday — but too soon to expect snow from it.
Weather pattern is favorable for some snow around the 18th or 19th (Sun-Mon) — worth following closely, but nothing to act upon yet.
Risk: 3/10

NEW: Tipsters tell me Pabst is in trouble, having cut 60-70 employees late last week in the 2nd big round of layoffs this year. “I think the layoffs are two-fold, trying to undercut the bad financial performance but also setting the company up for a buyout,” one recently laid-off employee said.
