Exactly right. 35 degrees in washington, and 28 in gaithersburg, and 28 in huntington, and this is the reason we will have issues. The temperature has been above freezing in most of the areas, but it means that the most of the snow will begin to quickly accumulate. And around luray, and looking at this heavier convection making its way in lining up. And chicago saw a good amount of snowfall in the day to derek and we wont see a lot, and it is not a major storm system, but the timing that it is enough to have that Winter Weather advisory starting about that time, about 11 30. And we will be talking about anne arundel, and d. C. And fairfax, and all around. And 6 00, no problem. But here we are at 11 00, and dealing with the snow back to the west, but by around 3 00 or 4 00, that is when it will develop, and some of the latest models have a hold on winchester, and front royal and you may not get as much from gaithersburg and washington and baltimore and down to the south and the east, it is mostly a rain event. By saturday, it is out of here, and by tomorrow afternoon, it is on the mild side, and tomorrow is a nice day even though we had the snow to start the day. And light snow and some sleet possible, and right now, we are thinking aba coout annapolis, a leesburg, and again, with that hole developing around winchester, you wont get anything but two inches there. And it is the timing and the morning hours, and early traffic problems and it may mean some School Closings and upwards delays. Look at the temperatures of a high up to 47 and again, tomorrow afternoon, looks great, and 54 on wednesday and a shower late in the day. And then 36 degrees and then looking at friday, 62 for the high, and we will get that very early, because then we will get the thunderstorms in the afternoon, and some of them strong and potentially severe, and as we move on through the day friday, the temperatures are going to drop quickly, and we will see the numbers 34, but this weekend, we are looking nice.

Already some snowshowers off to the west, but the main system, itself, and it is a strong system is back to the west here. This is a clipper moving to the north, and any time that the clippers move to the north, it is very hard to get a lot of snow in the region, so we wont see a lot from this, but we will see something tomorrow morning. Snow early, and the cold surfaces early will make the road slick tonight. And especially those not treated will have delays likely. Most likely, those 2hour delays are likely.
