southern side of the city looks like its getting hit hard for the next 20 minutes or so.

Down to 1/4 mile visibility in Arlington VA.

 

My driveway and sidewalk are covered, and now sides of the street are being attacked.

About 1-1.5 inches on tree branches.

Question: How much effect will the snow today, have on any accumulation tonight? For example, cooling surfaces like roadways down more quickly?

Probably fairly minimal.. it was scheduled to be cold either way tonight. Though not getting into the 40s today would help a bit perhaps around here.
