Overnight Snow & Ugly Start Tomorrow

The snow will be light overnight but 1/2 inch to an inch could fall. It will be slick with limited visibility to start the day. One would expect 2 hour delays for area schools. The decision to cancel will be a tough one for administrators. Additional snow and some light sleet and freezing rain will happen through the day accumulating one to two inches.

Roads will be passable but slick. Motorists should slow down, take it easy, and allow plenty of stopping distance.

The NWS did downgrade the storm warnings for counties south of us to I-70 to a Winter Weather Advisory. This is not the kiss of death for the storm but in fact us good news. The ice expected is not likely to accumulate as much as first forecast. Snow will be the precipitation of choice.

Everything will be out of the area by Saturday morning.
