THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IN MOUNT HOLLY HAS CANCELLED THE
WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY. THE WINTER STORM WARNING IS NOW IN
EFFECT UNTIL MIDNIGHT EST WEDNESDAY NIGHT. 

LOW PRESSURE FORMING OVER EASTERN SOUTH CAROLINA AND SOUTHEASTERN
NORTH CAROLINA WILL BECOME THE MAIN LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM TONIGHT
AS IT STARTS TO INTENSIFY RAPIDLY. BY WEDNESDAY MORNING...THIS
NOR/EASTER IS FORECAST TO BE JUST EAST OF OUR AREA...AND WILL
BRING HEAVY SNOW TO A GOOD PART OF OUR AREA WEDNESDAY DAY INTO
WEDNESDAY EVENING.

A WINTRY MIX OF SNOW, SLEET AND FREEZING RAIN IS EXPECTED
OVERNIGHT OVER SOUTHERN DELAWARE AND EXTREME SOUTHEASTERN NEW
JERSEY. AS WARMER AIR MOVES IN AT BOTH THE SURFACE AND ALOFT,
PRECIPITATION SHOULD CHANGE TO RAIN TOWARD MORNING. BUT...AS
COLDER AIR WRAPS AROUND THE STORM EVEN THESE AREAS ARE EXPECTED TO
CHANGE BACK TO SNOW.

ONE TO THREE INCHES OF SNOW AND SLEET COULD ACCUMULATE OVERNIGHT
ALONG WITH POSSIBLY AROUND A TENTH OF AN INCH OF ICE. TOTAL SNOW
ACCUMULATIONS SHOULD AVERAGE 5 TO 10 INCHES. THE SNOW MAY BE
HEAVY AT TIMES ON WEDNESDAY. THERE IS ALSO A POTENTIAL FOR STRONG WINDS
ESPECIALLY NEAR THE COAST...AND THIS WILL CAUSE CONSIDERABLE
BLOWING AND DRIFTING OF SNOW...EVEN MORE THAN WHAT OCCURRED WITH
THE WEEKEND SNOW STORM. BLIZZARD CONDITIONS MAY DEVELOP WEDNESDAY
AFTERNOON AND EVENING AS WINDS INCREASE.

A WINTER STORM WARNING MEANS SIGNIFICANT AMOUNTS OF SNOW...
SLEET...AND ICE ARE EXPECTED OR OCCURRING. STRONG WINDS ARE ALSO
POSSIBLE.  THIS WILL MAKE TRAVEL VERY HAZARDOUS OR IMPOSSIBLE.
