10:21 am
eto but they won't amount to anything. some areas especially north of d.c. areeeing flurries and it won't amount to everything. the tuesday eveningve could amount to some minor snow accumulation. we're talking about less than 2 fwhches. there could be isolated spots esnorth and that get over two inches and we'll talk about that, but it's a long s t. abou25% of wet snow coming our way, but, again, not today. clouds are filtering in right now ahead of aeak frontal system. we're fairly mild as we continue through your sunday andur temper in the upper 40s compared to the low 40s where we were know snow pack that we have out there. saw some sun youtside apartment will melt and then we'll have ice spots. sunny and cooler with temperatures in the upper 30s and by tuesday afternoon and evening, we had the ryan to snow change and then wednesday is going to be blustery and cold. we're talking about windchills on wednesday. single digits and teens once again. current temperatures out there

10:23 am
and then as we go throughyhe ain is moving in from the west to the east ahead of an arctic cold front that has really cold air behind it for wednesday, so it will start off as rain and the reason this is problematic is because as they la the brine down on the roads. look at this time right now. 5:30 on tuesday. evening smartroutes could be snowy and ice, and we'll continue with snow as we go through tuesday afternoon and evening and getng out of here well before that wednesday morning commute. that means temperatures will plummet. that means that roads could b on the ice side. we might get a couple inches. maybe a little more or less north of d.c. a wet, slushy snow in our area and tuesdaye afternoon o that rain starts, might want to download the nbc washington app to when the changeover
