5:18 pm
show up on radar late morning around lunch time but probably not make it down to the ground until sometime a little bit later in the afternoon. i think it'll be and time again at least for some of the rush hour to have some white on the roadways and because it's going to be so cold it will be able to stick to some of those roads could be a real mess around here tomorrow that system pulls out some areas the southern outer this new leader may be some rain mixing in that'll keep your amounts down but the highest amounts are going to tend to be right here near the albemarle sound may be areas of carroll county mainland areas of day or will she hear in just a second how much but the other big news is i said the cold air continuing so here's our forecast probably just some flurries maybe as much as a heavy dusting year and some of these northern areas most of our metro that includes a decent portion of the peninsula a dusting to maybe as much as two inches
5:19 pm
the two inches be the farther south you go in about two to four when she get elizabeth city and down into north carolina so not much going on now but again that changes by tomorrow so here's the forecast overnight twenty three thirty tomorrow seventy percent chance of precipitation and again that's an average it's about ninety percent for north carolina about seventy here in forty percent crossed maybe the middle peninsula near williamsburg windy saturday only thirty two for the high it'll feel like the twenties at best and then sunday even colder monday tuesday we see some mixed precipitation possibly changing over though to all rain may be pretty good soaking it that the structure with you all right thanks jeff. i virginia voters are weighing in on several hot button issues including gun control in lgbt rights will break down the results of the latest see a new poll and a kickass made headlines after the recent murder of
