owstorm. that's exactly what we had out there a little bit earlier toda really quite cool. a lot of people hearing it from middleton to frederick, cumberland,arand. and we are still seeing the snow making its way up to our the warmer air is moving in along. that has now changed things over to freezing rain for the most part. some slight reports but mostly freezing rain. still a lot of moilsture back t th west. watching this area and west virginia, this is going to come right on thrgh our region over at freezing rain is going to be picking up. 31 in college park. 34 d.c., no problem there. but even south, leesburg, gathesberg all at or below we still have a winter storm-worning in effect for montgomery county, louden county, and everybody back to the north and west. that goes untilm. 1:00 the advisory is until 7:00, now

until 10:00 i believe down towards d.c. and prince george's unty and prince william county as well. so heads up, once again that advisory through 7:00 tonight. so a couple more hours for that. here's the freezing rain at 6:00. notice it moves back in, just plain rain from d.c. southward. and through 8:00, look some heavier rain moving in. still pockets of freezing rain before it finally gets out of here, and by early tomorrow morning we are raie for the most part, amelia. but we're still dealing withhe pockets, we think of some freezing rain or rather some ice out there that wl cause som delays. >> from snow on the roads that fell earlier today and that concern for freezing rain until abouia midnight espy north and west of town is going to lead e to, whes the homework meter land? based on what we're seeing out there right now i think mostf us can count on a delay, so plan on sleeping in.ng that bsaid, if the school does not collin tonight, you'll definitely wan to tune in to news 4 today, turn those pjs

inside out and cross those fingers you have a snow delay for tomorrow. i really think the areas in maryland back towards the i-91 corridor could see cancellaoons. leadinglick roads, temperatures hover right around freezing. so there's not a lot of freezing. that slush and that ice hangs on. check it out. montgomery and prince wilam counties are in the potential cancellation areates well as ial delay. areas like upper montgomery county,ioknow how that's a completely different world than areas down to the south,al so is going to depend on what develops tonight and offbaials will py make that call late tonight or early tomorrow morning. fairfax as wellotential for delay in prince georges. out there i think the district is back to business as usual. and for our d.c. metro zone rain

isver by about 3:00 a.m. if not earlier. potentially over as early as midnight with temperatures in our metro zone right around and just about freezing. especially montgomery and prince william kounlties, maybe so william counties, but doug as th wears on tomorrow we see some sunshine developing. and temperatures warming up really nicely. >> tomorroe is going to a nice day, but it's going to be an interesting day, too. becauseeven though we've got some sunshine, we're still going to have t snow on the ground. 54 degrees with that snow on the ground by fday should be getting out of here. and notice we are not expecting a freeze any longer this i week. th very good news. we don't think we'll see much in the way of freeze. most of the area above freezing. slight chance of a shower, most of us dry. rain though likely on saturday. high temperature only of 46, so that's a cold rain. not a nice day at all. however, look close to 70 degrees.
