Snow is expected to begin this evening and continue through Sunday. This snowfall is due to a low pressure system that is expected to track east across the region on Sunday.

Travel may be hazardous due to sudden changes in the weather. Poor weather conditions may contribute to transportation delays. Take extra care when walking or driving in affected areas. Slow down driving in slippery conditions. Watch for taillights ahead and maintain a safe following distance.
