Special Statement


... Snowfall will make for slick driving this morning...

Light to moderate snow will continue across the area through the
morning. Accumulations will only be an inch or two in most
locations... but roads are already slick in many areas and will
remain so. Falling snow will also reduce visibility to a mile or
less at times. Drivers are urged to use caution and plan for extra
travel time.
