...Gusty snow showers late this afternoon and this evening likely
to cause temporary sharp reductions in visibility...
Showers this afternoon are likely to change from more rain and
graupel to snow showers during late day into this evening. Some
of these snow showers are likely to be heavy, as well as produce
strong wind gusts in excess of 40 mph underneath them. The
combination of the snow and winds will cause sharply reduced
visibility. The quick movement of the showers as well as pavement
temperatures above freezing should keep any snow accumulations
primarily on grassy surfaces, where localized amounts over one
half inch are possible.
The rapidly varying visibility with the forecast snow showers may
lead to temporary hazardous travel in places late today and
tonight. Motorists should allow extra travel time, including
during this evening's commute.
