    1. That means… we are getting thundersnow/thundersleet! This just underscores that snow/sleet rates are pretty heavy - avoid travel if at all possible!
    2. For some, this could be the heaviest snowfall in over a decade.
    3. Significant icing expected. Total snow and sleet accumulations up to two inches and ice accumulations between one quarter and three quarters of an inch.
    4. Persons should delay all travel if possible. If travel is absolutely necessary, drive with extreme caution and be prepared for sudden changes in visibility.
    5. Areas of heavy snow will spread eastward through the Ohio Valley and central Appalachians tonight, reaching the northern Mid-Atlantic by Monday morning.
    6. For locations in this region that receive the highest snow totals, it may be the heaviest snowfall in at least a decade.

    1. This winter storm will likely cause significant disruption and dangerous conditions on our roads and could cause significant power outages – just 24 hours before it gets dangerously cold.
    2. We see far too many wrecks out there for people that do not have to be on the roads, so I want to ask: Stay inside. Stay safe with your family.

    1. It's snowing so hard, the snow plows go through and then within a half hour the roadways are completely covered again.
