.DISCUSSION...
Active weather pattern is expected over the next 24 hours. An
area of low pressure developing along the Gulf coast will move
northeast across the southern Mid-Atlantic bringing wintry
precipitation. Cold air over our region will set the stage for
primarily snow, beginning tonight, and continue into Friday,
before ending Friday afternoon. Light to moderate accumulating
snow is likely. Below normal temperatures continue through the
weekend, before trending more mild for the middle of next week.
Brief periods of snow flurries possible over the mountains during
the weekend, but the next chance, after Friday, for a more
widespread rain comes middle of next week.
