What we're expecting weather wise:
Right now rain is possible through around 8pm before it turns into a sleet/snow mix. We're expecting the snow to stop falling around 3am as we see lows of 17 degrees with a half an inch of snow accumulation possible.
Waking up on your Wednesday morning expect to see snow on the ground and very icy conditions. The rain falling tonight coupled with freezing temperatures will likely lead to high amounts of black ice on the roadways. Roads will be very dangerous so don't leave the house if you don't have to!
Tomorrow (Wednesday, Jan. 17th) the high is expected to be 31 degrees which will allow the snow and ice on the roads to hang around until Thursday when we get back above freezing temperatures.
