...Light Snow May Affect The Morning Commute Tomorrow...

Light snow is expected to develop late tonight ahead of an
approaching cold front through the area. This will impact the
entire area but mainly the northern counties and the ridges will
be impacted the most.

The snow is expected to be light with only a coating to 2 inches
at the very most. However, the colder temperatures will allow snow
to stick to all untreated surfaces. This will make for slippery
travel through the morning commute. It doesn`t take much snow in
these colder temperatures to cause impacts.

Motorists should prepare for slick road conditions Thursday
morning. Allow extra time for travel.
