Discussion
Snow will continue for awhile today with additional small accumulations possible and it can then mix with rain from the mid-day into the afternoon. Another system will push towards us tonight and the DC metro region will be on the northern fringes of the precipitation field with some more now possible at times; especially, in southern suburbs. A stronger system is set to arrive this weekend and it will likely result in mixed precipitation of snow, sleet and/or freezing rain with some ice buildup possible. Yet another storm could have an impact on the region from later Monday into Tuesday with snow, sleet and/or freezing rain on the table.
