Snow to ice possible on Sunday, which happens to be the first day of meteorological spring.
...WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY IN EFFECT FROM 7 AM SUNDAY TO 3 AM EST MONDAY...
* HAZARD TYPES...SNOW...SLEET...AND FREEZING RAIN. * ACCUMULATIONS...A COATING TO 1 INCH OF SNOW AND SLEET ACROSS WASHINGTON DC AND SOUTHERN MARYLAND. 1 TO 3 INCHES IN THE NORTHERN AND WESTERN SUBURBS OF WASHINGTON DC. ICE ACCUMULATION AROUND ONE TENTH OF AN INCH. * TIMING...SNOW WILL BEGIN BETWEEN 7 AM AND 10 AM SUNDAY MORNING. SNOW WILL CHANGE TO SLEET AND FREEZING RAIN BETWEEN NOON AND 3 PM SUNDAY AFTERNOON. PRECIPITATION WILL END AS FREEZING RAIN SUNDAY NIGHT.
* WINDS...SOUTH AROUND 5 TO 10 MPH. * TEMPERATURES...RISING THROUGH THE 20S MORNING. TEMPERATURES WILL RISE INTO THE LOWER AND MIDDLE 30S SUNDAY AFTERNOON INTO SUNDAY NIGHT.
Due to timing, it seems like this will mainly be a low impact event, but depending on how well the cold air wedge holds, (Cold air tends to not like moving) we could be in for surprises.
My call:
Snow beginning around 10AM changing to sleet/freezing rain by 3PM
Snow: Up to 1 inch accumulation
Ice: Up to .2 in accumulation, mainly in areas out of the sun and possibly tree branches.
