this is on the western shore of the chesapeake bay in parts of prince george's county, as well as anne arundelounty over the bay. we're already dry across most of northern virginia, out over the panhandle of west virginia. bus stop conditions for the kids, a couple of flurries around. several no big deal. just watch out for that fresh coating of snow. temperatures in the upper 20s by later this afternoon. another round of flurries coming in around 2:00, 3:00, 4:00 this afternoon. otherwise, a partly sunny and mostly cloudy and breezy day. temperatures above freezing. that will not be the case tomorrow. 4:51. here's melissa with trouble on the roads. >> trouble on the roads, storm team 4 out there. you can see with the roads treatmented like perhaps this one, a little slushy, a little covering, i guess i should say on the side streets here this morning. but the main roads all looking quite good as tom kierein has been telling us driving around. silver hill road at st. barnabas, left lane blocked there box of cray rash. outerbound sooutland. 270 northbound at old hundred, that crash out of the w

and so we do expect to see heavier snow totals across parts of anne arundel, for example, even up toward howard county, northern montgomery into frederick all the way up toward the philadelphia area as well as beach locations, so little nor snow there. this is how it translates on our map slushy snow, maybe dusting on grass to inch, and then you have got the jackpot areas northeastern maryland in the mountains, more of widespread three-six for northern communities where there will likely be more impacts with this. we do see little bit of precipitation on radar, not getting many reports of this hitting the grounds just yet. i had to go down to roanoke, but at the moment what we do see a loft is more rain, temperatures at the surface still in the 40's, no worries for the evening commute. this is our system, it is going to be moving its way to the coast, and, eventually, becoming a separate coastal storm, and that's when we think tomorrow, it might have opportunity in the afternoon to throw bit more moisture our way. last stop here the timing. 9:00 to midnight combination of rain and snow h

the showers are moving quickly across anne arundel county.the few lingering east of 95 but these are going to be out of here. these are fast movers. cleared the district maybe a little more coming into northwest and this activity across charles county will move away pretty quickly as well. so from 61 we're down to 49 degrees. we do want to watch temperatures later tonight. not looking for a widespread refreeze but up to our north and west there could be some areas that are cold enough and below freezing that you might have patchy ice later. the district about 37, gaithersburg 32. but frederick we'll watch your area for a little bit of refreeze here. so showers exit, we drop to 36, some fog is possible for a little while tonight and then during the day tomorrow we should brighten up quite a bit. early morning fog in a few spots possible. cooler day with winds out of the northwest 5 to 10. boy we've been treated to some spectacular sunrises and sunsets. we want to show you tomorrow morning's temperature at 37 when the sun comes up at 7:14. than
