...POTENTIAL WINTER COMMUTING HAZARD FOR THE BALTIMORE AND
WASHINGTON METRO AREAS THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING...
There is a potential for hazardous commuting conditions for this
afternoon and evening commute. A period of snow is POSSIBLE (a 30
to 50 percent chance) this afternoon and evening across the
Baltimore and Washington metro areas with up to a half inch of
accumulation on area roads.
If this threat does materialize this afternoon and evening rush-
hour, many roads could quickly turn snow covered. This could lead
to dangerous traveling conditions on untreated surfaces.
If commuting this afternoon and evening, be aware of the
POSSIBILITY of travel disruptions. Plan ahead by allowing for
extra travel time.
Stay tuned for updates on this potential winter weather episode.
