…Slick roads possible tonight…

As temperatures fall tonight, precipitation will gradually change
over to all snow west of the Blue Ridge with a light 
accumulation less than an inch, and a period of freezing drizzle 
is also possible. This may create slick spots on roads, especially
bridges and overpasses, as well as walkways. Any roads that 
remain wet from recent rainfall may also become icy tonight.

Anyone traveling west of the Blue Ridge should anticipate slick 
travel conditions tonight and through the morning commute on 
Monday.
