round two. another storm heading our way. we're getting ready for more snow. good evening. i'm roosevelt leftwich. >> i'm kelly swoope. let's get right to meteorologist wyatt eberhart and justin berk with the latest on this latest winter wallop. >> we've basically gone from forecast mode, more to storm tracking mode. this is already moving into maryland as we speak. you can see some very heavy bands pushing into the immediate baltimore area. we have sleet through much of the eastern half of the state. extending now through the delmarva peninsula. on maryland's most powerful doppler radar now you can see, if you look closely, baltimore getting into some, at least moderate snow now. i'll have to check the objections at the top of the -- observations at the top of the hour, but looks like more sleet down in the easton area and back to cambridge to the south

and east. that is why we think accumulations could be a bit less. nonetheless a winter storm warning up for the entire state. baltimore, ocean city, all the way west past hagerstown, frederick and beyond. it will be a snowy situation. we think we'll now push to the number one winter of all time for snow here since records have been kept in the baltimore area. unbelievable stuff. we only need another half-inch. looks like we're probably going to get well beyond that, we're talking a foot or more likely. >> it's in spots already. it was coming down fast and furious. >> westminster -- >> ralph in westminster called in, says there's two inches of snow coming down so far. he said it was coming down so hard and furious it was like confection sugar. a quick two inches in westminster and that's what happens with snowstorms my friends. they dump more in one spot versus the other. go back to that. 29 degrees and winds only pushed 12 miles per hour the real wind with the storm is going to actually pick up,

tomorrow. when the real heavy snow is tomorrow morning. let's give you an idea of how the clouds progressed in nearby mount airy. you can see it got dark and the snow actually built in over the last couple of hours. cutting down our visibility. we have one more loop here just to show you that the clouds have been racing in. they've been lowering and thickening, finally producing the snow in the last couple of hours.

if you trop one millie bar for 24 hours it's considered a bomb. this is going to drop 25 millibars between now and this time tomorrow. what that creates this concavity or bowl in the atmosphere, everything has to race in to fill into that center of the storm and that is going to create the winds. i suspect here 40 mile-per-hour wind gusts or higher and probably over 60 mile-per-hour winds at the beach. we'll be back in a few minutes with the latest on the storm as it moves in.

before 795, we have debris in the roadway, inner loop before hollands ferry road two lanes closed for snow removal. northbound 795 approaching owings mills boulevard, truck off to the right, blocking lanes. delays solid to the beltway, give yourself a few extra minutes. in baltimore county, a watermain break, ongoing repairs are blocking the two right lanes at westbound pulaski highway at contractors road.

>> everyone is trying to get a jump on the storm. before you head out you might want to double your travel times because everyone had the same idea you do. trying to get to the store, get out of work, go home. take your time and as the roads get more slick definitely be careful. back to you. >> with another storm on the way some are digging out from the weekend storm in religion lutherville. vince went to work on the big dig, came home from florida yesterday. and he's trying to prepare for yet another storm. >> i don't know where it's going to go. i don't see where it's going to go. i don't think that wall of snow can get any higher but i guess it will, have to. >> as you just heard neighbors are concerned about where to put all the snow in their neighborhood. >> i hate to say this but get ready harford county. looks like the winter wallop could be especially bad in your area. brian kuebler is checking on the conditions in the bel air area.
