N any snow especially to areas in the north it wont were not talking about any stickingtc maybe a dust on the grasses orse car tops. S lets get to our we weaer maps and well show you. Ther m a. M. Mix around the areaee thats ongoing. Ats ogoing. That will transition to justu rain showers later this this afternoon and also this is a very light precipitation. Tation so, nothing that comes down without any heft to it isit going to make a dramaticmatic difference. Llar d. C. Its really just rain showers out there. All oflf us are above freezing. Eezing. Area airports 37 at reagan, 35 5 dulles, 34 at bwi marshall. Arsh. Up by bwi, Northern Marylandnd thats where you get into a little bit of colder air y. R once you cross thee pennsylvania border for sure. Su. Thats the area as you getu into the panhandle andandle and Northern Maryland up tod up o pennsylvania that could see upsu to an inch of snow before changing over to light rain t later this afternoon. Te the rest of us are into the midr thf us 30s. S. Leonardtown 32 degrees. 2 deees. It will be very locally thesehee effects that are felt in thet ie different types ofdi precipitation.

This front is delivering uslives this mixed bag. You can see ixtedhe differentift colors which predict the predict varying types of precipitations and its kind of hardof with wh these radar echoes with light precipitation to get a handle h on whats falling it looks l that you got light snow snow overhead here in washington. Shig no observations coming in ascoms snow so maybe higher above theot ground where the radar beam iss seeing it thats snow but rearbr weir really only seeing lighteei rain falling here and reallye ay all across the area so caitlinon roth fox5 on twitter. Witter tweet me and tell me whatl me youre seeing because thebecaus radar isnt overly helpfulhe this morning.

And again snow up towards Cumberland Frostburg maryland,os you guys will probably tbsee ane inch or so. S freezing rain is a possibilitysy towards our north. Ort if that precipitation doesnt get into Baltimore Ford anotherr hour or zoo two ando temperature continues to drop,ct thats where they could seere te some freezing rain.

By 5 oclock its basically basc over and then by tomorrowtomorrw morning well see the clouds dramatically recede andatically tomorrow actually looks like a a dry sunny day. Nn. Pretty nice. All right, briefly freezingfly n rain maybe snowflakeswflak transitioning to rain shower. Ng no accumulation. Up to an inch possible with to i the snow andth sleet mix oncemi you get north of Baltimore Bali noon sections of northern no maryland and down towardsows Southern Maryland again agin interesting that leonardtownleon is 32 but i think you reallyally only see rain there.
