Today was a nice surprise for those living about 10 miles north of I70. The NWS put out some late advisories for those areas this morning where a quick 1-2″ of snow fell making roads pretty dicey for a few hours in those areas. Things are starting to wind down from west to east, and any precipitation should be out of the area by early afternoon. Temperatures should be above freezing in all areas this afternoon, and there may even be some sun to help dry the roads.
That takes us to tomorrow where just yesterday I said that it looked to be a system that stays mainly to the east of central MD, but that may be changing. Short range models have brought the system further west to include the 95 corridor with snow moving in several hours before sunrise on Sunday and continuing into early afternoon. Temperatures again look marginal, so I am not expecting a lot of travel difficulty, but I’ll keep an eye on it and update this evening.
Beyond tomorrow, models continue to show more substantial possibilities for later next week and even the following week.
