that will switch everything over into plain liquid rain. we could get up to about a tenth of an inch of ice across the area here, especially in lynchburg. this will cause very slick conditions. jonathan? >> well the roads look good with the plows coming through. we're watching the slick roads and the snow for the most part we're done with the accumulate part. some good accumulations out there, as you mentioned, about five to 9 inches out there. we want to mention the impacts as well. we're talking about the ice and

we did see the change over from snow around 10:30 this morning. now the road conditions are treacherous out there and most of the roads are listed as moderate which means snow and ice cover much of the surfaces. we're seeing some of the roads being upgraded to severe. including all secondary roads here. radford university is closed today. while many people are getting the chance to stay home, many are having to go to work. they're says that it's already worse. >> well the roads are worse and nowhere as near clear. it's been really bad and i've been taking it really slow. a lot of cars in the ditches.

good afternoon, this is a live look over at virginia tech from the sky cam. you can see a blanket of snow and that's what we're seeing across the entire viewing area. this morning we all woke up to that fresh blanket of snow. we're seeing a lull in the activity but it's not over. the winter warning is in effect until noon tomorrow. ice will be our next concern. we're seeing drier air coming

is ice and the green is plain old rain. mainly ice through lynchburg heading north into covington and along i.64. we're seeing snow fall but that line will continue to the north and we'll see that ice mixing into the highlands as well. we're seeing a break around 3 to 4:00 and there will be isolated spots and of course the snow but there's a big lull in the activity and a lot of dry air out there. it will quickly fill in as we head into the evening and unfortunately a lot of cold air. we're going to see everything change over to rain showers and then the rain will be heavy at times. especially tomorrow, we get a huge push of moisture that will

heading into tomorrow afternoon things taper off and clear up nicely. we're expecting about a tenth of an inch of ice here along the blue bridge park way. v. dot is doing a great job keeping this roads open. power outages are a possibility as well and flooding because a lot of snow covering up the drainage areas and we could see that water doing that especially in the morning commute. jonathan. >> well before we talk about some fun. or at least try to, we're

we just piled some snow up and it's too fluffy to make it bigger. it will help thicken this up and hopefully mold. hopefully we can show you tomorrow that we have a snow fort. we have about 3 inches to about 11 inches across the area in newport. rocky gap, 9 inches and salem also that mark. wytheville, also coming in at 7 and a half. note the temperatures, we woke up to middle teens and watch what happens here. watch this snow man, and it will show you how life will

below freezing later and above the surface it's above freezing. that's when we get that freezing rain and later this evening and tonight that's where the icing concerns come in. watch what happens tomorrow, 7:00 tomorrow, 24 hours removed from the teens we jump back to the 40s and 50s. we had that melting snow and plus heavier rain and we have the drains covered by all this snow. and if you're not a fan of winter, we have 50s around the weekend time. so our little snow fort might not really make it much past a couple of days. hopefully we can mold it later guys? >> i love that forecast. i love it. i mean you just have to get through today and tomorrow and know there's a reward. i know it's winter but we've been cooped up.

>> i need nice weather to get out and maybe go for run. >> or go help out with building that snow mound [ laughter ] >> well the snow is starting to wind down but the ice is forming and becoming a factor and that will make the commute tricker. >> we have our traffic cam hereand the conditions update. >> reporter: we're getting on to 585 south right now, we're not seeing much in the way of pavement. the v. dot crews have been taking care of the roads here. things are slushy as well and

flakes and now we're seeing mainly rain and a little bit of ice. so the roads are still slick. they're asking people to stay off the roads right now. we're passing by valley view mall which is closed today. if you head out, give yourself extra time and take things slow throughout the evening. >> thanks. if you haven't already download to ten news weather and traffic map. >> the apps include the business and schools closings and the best news, it's free, available on the app store.

we're watching the weather coverage and if you're catching a flight today you may have to change your plans. you can see they're trying to get things cleared off but there's still a lot of white out there covering the runway. that's causing a whole bunch of delays and cancellations. if you're flying out of lynchburg they have cancellations there as well. and the danville airport is closed. the snow has been falling for more than 15 hours now and we have been tracking it, rob, what is it looking like now? still snow or ice falling for you?

is the snow that we've been tracking since 7:00 and it's all sleet now. it's here in the alleghany and highlands area. we're talking to people and they say that the primary roads are passible but the secondary are still buried. crews from v. dot are all working together and working hard. and where have the lumber company here where staff there was brave enough to come in. they're helping the customers today clear off their snow. they're making a killing today

weather stuff, stoves and de icers. the owner had a 40 mile commute today and he said it wasn't too bad. we'll talk to him later about what they're doing weather this storm. >> thanks so much, rob. well we're just a few minutes away from daytime blue ridge. >> well forget about the snow, we're thinking spring is and how to take an excursion. plus, if you're purchasing new furniture sometimes it can look too big, and we'll talk to the expert about how to prevent that.
