THREATS & ACCUMULATION

Roads will likely become slick midday with the transition to a light wintry mix, especially on bridges and overpasses. The threat continues after the winter weather as temperatures dip into the teens overnight, helping freeze more slick spots.

Accumulation will be hard to form with only light precipitation. There could be some grassy surfaces and roofs where snow could stick, but major accumulation will not be likely.
