...Period of Snow Showers and Blowing Snow Through Early
Afternoon...
A period of moderate to briefly heavy-falling snow is expected
within snow showers through early afternoon. The rather short
duration of the heavier snow bursts should result in only minor
accumulations, with isolated amounts up to an inch. South winds
of 20 to 30 mph with gusts of 30 to 40 mph late this morning will
result in sharply reduced visibilities within some of the snow, as
well as some blowing snow.
Since untreated roads will likely become at least lightly snow
covered, anyone planning to drive through early afternoon should
leave extra travel time.
