Snow this weekend in Richmond? Last weekend, Richmonders were prepared for snow and ice, having been warned as early as the Monday before that a major storm was coming. The National Weather Service is putting Richmond directly on the line dividing the snow-haves from the snow-have-nots. If the storm inches northward, expect 3-6 inches of snow on Saturday. (National Weather Service Wakefield)While Richmond is facing uncertainty, the NWS is feeling more confident that this will be a major weather event in Tidewater and North Carolina's Outer Banks.
