...ACCUMULATING SNOW TO AFFECT THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING COMMUTE...

A WEAK SYSTEM WILL TRACK TO OUR SOUTH TONIGHT AND PRODUCE A 
WIDESPREAD LIGHT SNOWFALL ACROSS THE AREA. THE SNOW IS EXPECTED TO 
OVERSPREAD THE REGION FROM WEST TO EAST BETWEEN ABOUT 3 PM AND 6 PM. 
THE SNOWFALL INTENSITY IS EXPECTED TO BE ON THE LIGHTER SIDE WITH 
TOTAL ACCUMULATIONS GENERALLY 1 TO 2 INCHES.

GIVEN HOW COLD IT HAS BEEN MOST OF THIS WEEK, THE SNOW WILL 
ACCUMULATE IMMEDIATELY. THIS WILL RESULT IN QUICKLY DEVELOPING SLICK 
CONDITIONS INTO THE EARLY EVENING HOURS. UNTREATED ROADS AND 
WALKWAYS WILL BECOME SNOW COVERED, RESULTING IN AREAS OF SLIPPERY 
TRAVEL.

WHILE DRIVING BE PREPARED FOR SLIPPERY ROADS AND REDUCED VISIBILITIES,
AND USE CAUTION WHILE DRIVING. DRIVE AT A SLOWER SPEED AND USE
EXTRA CAUTION, ESPECIALLY WHEN TRAVELING ON BRIDGES AND OTHER
ELEVATED SURFACES AS THEY TEND TO BECOME EVEN MORE SLIPPERY. THE
SNOW IS EXPECTED TO END FROM WEST TO EAST BETWEEN ABOUT 10 PM AND
1 AM.
