...HAZARDOUS WINTER CONDITIONS THIS EVENING...

AN STRONG ARCTIC COLD FRONT WILL MOVE ACROSS THE MID-ATLANTIC THIS

EVENING. THROUGH 8 PM EXPECT SNOW SHOWERS AND SQUALLS AND WINDY

CONDITIONS AS THE FRONT MOVES THROUGH...ALONG WITH POSSIBLE

THUNDERSNOW.

BURSTS OF HEAVY SNOW COULD PRODUCE A QUICK COATING TO AN INCH OF

SNOW ACCUMULATION IN A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. WHITEOUT CONDITIONS

AND THUNDERSNOW HAVE ALREADY BEEN REPORTED IN WESTERN MARYLAND.

ROADS WILL BECOME SNOW COVERED AND SLICK THIS EVENING. ALSO...WINDS

ACCOMPANYING THE SNOW SHOWERS AND SQUALLS WILL BECOME STRONG...

GUSTING 40 TO 50 MPH. THE COMBINATION OF SNOW SHOWERS AND STRONG

WINDS WILL LEAD TO VISIBILITIES OF ONE HALF MILE OR LESS. THESE

LOW VISIBILITIES WILL DEVELOP SUDDENLY.

TRAVELERS ACROSS THE REGION ARE ADVISED TO USE EXTREME CAUTION

THROUGH THIS EVENING. BE PREPARED FOR RAPIDLY CHANGING CONDITIONS

AS THE ARCTIC FRONT MOVES THROUGH. BURSTS OF HEAVY SNOW WITH

SUDDEN VISIBILITY RESTRICTIONS COULD MAKE FOR DANGEROUS DRIVING

CONDITIONS.

AFTER THE SNOW ENDS LATE THIS EVENING...VERY COLD AIR WILL MOVE

INTO THE MID-ATLANTIC. THE VERY COLD AIR WILL ALLOW ANY SNOW OR

SLUSH ON AREA ROADS TO FREEZE...RESULTING IN ICY CONDITIONS. WIND

CHILLS WILL QUICKLY FALL INTO THE SINGLE DIGITS THIS EVENING.

I've been away for a while, but this is awesome!
