Additional details
The timing of precipitation has changed and the advisory start time has been pushed back to tonight. For mid to late this afternoon, expect a brief period of light snow with little to no accumulation. The evening hours will then be mostly dry before precipitation moves back in during the overnight hours. Snow will transition to freezing rain overnight before becoming all rain with above freezing temperatures Tuesday morning. There is increased confidence in a quicker warm-up, meaning less snow accumulation and a quicker changeover to rain.
