...AN AREA OF HEAVIER SNOW CONTINUES TO AFFECT THE REGION...

AT 5:55 PM, NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DOPPLER RADAR AND SURFACE
OBSERVATIONS INDICATED AN AREA OF HEAVIER SNOW OCCURRING ACROSS
THE REGION. THERE HAVE BEEN REPORTS OF UP TO 3 INCHES OF SNOW
WITHIN THIS AREA, WITH EVEN SOME SNOW STICKING TO THE ROADWAYS.

THE WET CONSISTENCY OF THE SNOW WILL ALLOW FOR IT TO STICK TO
TREES AND POWER LINES, WHICH COULD RESULT IN SOME DOWNED TREE
LIMBS AND RENEWED POWER OUTAGES. IN ADDITION, UNTREATED SURFACES
WILL HAVE AT LEAST SOME SNOW ON THEM RESULTING IN SLIPPERY
CONDITIONS. THIS WILL ESPECIALLY BE THE CASE WHEN THE SNOWFALL
RATE INCREASES. THE VISIBILITY WILL BE REDUCED TO AROUND ONE-HALF
OF A MILE AT TIMES. USE CAUTION WHILE DRIVING THROUGH THIS
EVENING, ESPECIALLY ON SECONDARY ROADWAYS, BRIDGES AND OTHER
ELEVATED SURFACES.
