February 16, 2019: Quick winter weather update.

Good evening

We have a winter weather advisory for portions of the area tonight.  Wintry precipitation could also occur outside the advisory zone.

Temperatures today have struggled to move above freezing.  The amount of snow and ice is the reason.

We have widespread 30 to 34-degree readings.  The thinking was we would move into the 33 to 36-degree range.  Locally higher.  That is not happening.

 

 

A fast moving system will spread freezing rain, sleet, and snow into the region tonight.  It will be a light event.

The problem is that it does not take much freezing rain or freezing drizzle to cause issues.  That is the reason for the advisory.

Again, other areas may also have issues.

Use care if you much be out tonight and early tomorrow morning.

Other roads remain ice covered from last nights event.

Thank you for all the ice storm photos.  I posted many of them on my Twitter feed.

Radars are up and running (see below).
