...Very Light Snow Accumulations Possible Tonight...
Rain will develop and change to snow in most places tonight.
However, temperatures will struggle to drop to freezing, making
it difficult for snow to stick. Most locations will see little or
no accumulation, but a few slick spots can`t be ruled out,
especially on bridges.
