Here is what I'm thinking for snowfall totals across the area.
- There will be a sharp cutoff between just a couple of inches and several more. Right now, it looks like that cutoff will straddle I-79. This is subject to change and any shift west or east to the track of the storm could greatly change snowfall totals.
- Precip will start as rain in the lowlands and a mix of snow, sleet, and possibly some freezing rain in the mountains tomorrow afternoon.
- Precip will change to all snow everywhere by midnight tomorrow night.
- Expect several hours of moderate to at times heavy snow through Wednesday morning.
- Snow will taper to snow showers for Wednesday afternoon.
Impacts:
- Travel will be treacherous across the area Wednesday morning and through the afternoon and evening in the mountains.
- Visibilities will be reduced to 1/2 to 1/4 mile Tuesday night and Wednesday morning.
- Snow will be heavy and wet, which may lead to downed trees and power lines, especially where the heaviest snows fall in the mountains.
I'll post an update tomorrow with any changes as needed.
