The first major storm for the northern plains. Reynolds wolf from the Weather Channel in rapid city, south dakota, with more. Reporter well, from rapid city, south dakota, it has been a brutal, brutal mix of what we have had. Its been not only the wind, its also been the snow. 2 to 3 to maybe as much as 5 inches of snow falling here since the Early Morning. We do expect the snow by Late Afternoon to begin to taper off, but the wind, my goodness, the wind anywhere from 20 to 30 miles per hour, some stronger gusts. Its going to be coupled with air thats going to be coming straight in from parts of the north, right across the u. S. Canadian border. Single digits to near zero. But when you bring in that wind, its going to feel colder. If youll notice, though, the snow, we do expect that to end. But still plenty on the roadways, anywhere from 2 to 4 to maybe as much as 5. The roads in rapid city have been treated by salt trucks. They have had plows that have come through. Problem is, we still have plenty on the interstate. Parts of i90, overpasses, bridges. We could have some really slick spots there.

But then on friday, that cold hits, and it too will be sticking around for days. Meanwhile, our weather around here has been absolutely gorgeous. Just tracking high clouds around southeastern virginia, north carolina, and some of these clouds will be skirting into our area tomorrow. I think mainly east and along i95 for tomorrow. And then well might see a little sprinkle or light shower across southern maryland. 61 degrees, our temperature now. 59 in leesburg. Exercise impact forecast for this evening will cool to the low 50s by 8 00. And stay steady by the time we get to 9 00 and 10 00. So a bit of a gentle drop with our temperatures this evening. And boy, im just going to love the next couple days compared to whats coming. Early tomorrow morning, weve got, again, some clouds that will start rolling in. There is your i95 corridor, where the clouds will be setting up. And i think youll remember tomorrow as a partly sunny day. Any showers should stay east and to our south and east. Meanwhile, wednesday, we start with some clouds, but we get sunshine for the afternoon. Sunshine and windy conditions. We could have gusts around here to 20 and 25 miles per hour. So if youre going to be heading to the concert tomorrow when the gates open around 10 00 a. M. , your temperature, 47, 48 degrees. We hit the mid 60s by 2 00. Again, partly sunny sky.
