Forecast Overview
Last Updated: 4:20PM December 8th

4:20PM Monday

A coastal storm is still slated to bring a widespread snowfall to the region. However, across the local area the storm will start off as a period of snow before transitioning to a potentially heavy rain.

There is still quite a bit of uncertainty with the exact onset time, and especially the timing of the change over to rain. As of right now, however, current thinking is as follows:

Snow developing around 5AM.
Changeover to rain occurring between 7AM and 10AM.
Rain throughout the rest of the day.
Heavy rain possible in the afternoon.
Steadiest rain tapering off after midnight.

As of right now, there appears to be the potential for an inch or two of snow accumulation Tuesday morning, depending on when the change over occurs.

Next Update by 10PM.
