.DISCUSSION...
Active and colder weather returns for the first couple days of
meteorological spring. Still many uncertainties with the models, but
chances for wintry weather in the form of snow and some freezing
rain from Monday into Tuesday. Some impacts may be possible for the
Monday morning and evening commutes. Light snowfall accumulations
and some ice accretions up to a couple tenths of an inch are

Remaining wet and unsettled through the balance of the week with a
