Discussion
A wintry mix of light snow, sleet and/or rain is likely later today and tonight and there can be slick spots on untreated surfaces given the cold ground conditions. The moisture field from low pressure off the Mid-Atlantic coastline will shift away to the northeast of here on Wednesday and then low pressure will intensify near the Carolina coastline by Thursday. The precipitation from the Carolina storm should stay well to the south of here on Thursday, but this system will help to pull down a very cold air mass from Canada for the end of the week and for the weekend. Another storm will threaten the Mid-Atlantic in the Sunday/Monday time frame and it has potential to have a high impact on the region.
