A BLIZZARD WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL MIDNIGHT EST TONIGHT. 

A COASTAL STORM DEVELOPING OFF THE CENTRAL MID ATLANTIC COAST
WILL INTENSIFY EXPLOSIVELY TODAY. A MIXTURE OF RAIN, SLEET,
FREEZING RAIN, AND SNOW WILL CHANGE TO ALL SNOW BY THIS AFTERNOON
AS THE STORM MOVES NORTHWARD. THIS WILL CAUSE WINDS TO BACK TO
NORTHEAST AND NORTH AND BRING COLDER AIR INTO THE REGION. WITH
HEAVY SNOW EXPECTED TO DECREASE VISIBILITIES, AND STRONG WINDS
GUSTING TO 40 TO 50 MILES AN HOUR THIS AFTERNOON, BLIZZARD
CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED AT TIMES MAINLY FROM ABOUT MIDDAY AND
THROUGH THE AFTERNOON, POSSIBLY PERSISTING INTO EARLY TONIGHT
BEFORE TAPERING OFF. HOWEVER, WINDS WILL CONTINUE TO BE STRONG
THIS EVENING SO THERE WILL BE PLENTY OF BLOWING SNOW WITH REDUCED
VISIBILITIES AS WELL TONIGHT.

TOTAL SNOW ACCUMULATIONS ARE EXPECTED TO RANGE FROM 8 TO
16 INCHES INTO EARLY TONIGHT, WITH THE HIGHEST AMOUNTS AWAY FROM
THE COAST.

NEAR-BLIZZARD OR BLIZZARD CONDITIONS ARE RARE FOR OUR AREA, SO
IT IS LIKELY THAT PEOPLE WILL NOT REALIZE THE PERIL THAT EXISTS
IN VENTURING OUT IN SUCH STORMS. LIFE-THREATENING CONDITIONS ARE
POSSIBLE, AND DRIVING WILL BE HAZARDOUS AT BEST DURING THIS
WINTER STORM TODAY AND EARLY TONIGHT. IT IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
THAT TRAVEL BE CURTAILED DUE TO THE DANGEROUS CONDITIONS, AND
ONLY DRIVE IF IT IS TRULY AN EMERGENCY SITUATION.

A BLIZZARD WARNING MEANS SEVERE WINTER WEATHER CONDITIONS ARE
EXPECTED OR OCCURRING. FALLING AND BLOWING SNOW WITH STRONG WINDS
AND POOR VISIBILITIES ARE LIKELY. THIS WILL LEAD TO WHITEOUT
CONDITIONS, MAKING TRAVEL EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. DO NOT TRAVEL. IF
YOU MUST TRAVEL, HAVE A WINTER SURVIVAL KIT WITH YOU. IF YOU GET
STRANDED, STAY WITH YOUR VEHICLE.
