It's going to snow today!

A winter weather advisory is in effect for the Tri-State from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. Snow will come down quickly this morning and it will lead to slick spots on the roads for a period of time before starting to melt, improving travel conditions. The likeliest timing for travel issues, if they develop, would be from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.

AMOUNTS:

Today's snowfall is one that will be a little tricky to measure because a lot of it will melt as it falls. Much like the event earlier this week, roads will be wet, but at times snow-covered and slick. But as we get into the afternoon hours when the snow is done, it's expected that roads will improve as the snow melts.

Clipper systems generally produce about 1-2" of snowfall and that's exactly what we are expecting today. Snowfall amounts could be a little bit lower to the southwest, mainly because you are right on the edge of this system and your temperatures will be a little bit warmer too.
