Winter Storm Warnings Expand

Good evening everyone. I wanted to drop by for a quick update to show you how the Winter Storm Warnings have now expanded to include much of the state though Wednesday. The southern counties are under a Winter Weather Advisory during the dame time. Here is the updated map...



Snow will be breaking out from southwest to northeast later this evening into the overnight and will become mixed with some ice across the south. You can track this mess in here with regional radar...



Here are the headlines of this thing...

- Snow develops overnight with some ice possible by morning across the south. This will be a high impact event for the morning commute.

- My snow map from my last update for late tonight and early Tuesday remains unchanged.

- Temps will try to go above freezing for a few hours in most of the area... this would mean a switch to some freezing rain or light rain will take place... especially across the south and east. The deepest moisture may already be over by this time.

- Arctic front to slam in here Tuesday evening. Temps will drop by more than 10-15 degrees in just a few hours as any rains go back to snow.

- Snows will move back in Tuesday night and last through Wednesday night. High snow ratios will be with us meaning we maximize the amount of precip that falls. Several inches of snow will fall during this time.

- Winds will crank up to 30-35mph into Wednesday creating blowing and drifting snows. Wind chills will be near 0.

Overall... this is a high impact winter storm that will hit the region over the next few days. I will have more updates as needed later this evening so check back. Take care.
