tomorrow. how much? it does look like around the metro area, we could get two to five inches of snow. and one to three inches farther south and east of the metro area. and farther north and west, though, i think the dark blue zone, there's a pretty good chance, three to six inches of snow, the timing on this beginning maybe mid morning tomorrow. perhaps around just after dawn, all the way into sunset on tuesday. northern montgomery county, northern fairfax, leesburg, loudoun county west and north, three to six inches of snow tomorrow. danella, checking on the roadways on this monday. good morning. that's right. good morning. still tracking breaking news. a couple of roads shut down. first we'll start with an accident oxon hill shut down between 210 and the national hash. use 210 instead. still tracking an earlier accident on the ramp from 197 to southbound bw parkway. that ramp is still shut down. police are investigating a shooting. this is in manassas. we just also heard this from
