The Washington, D.C. region was slammed by a winter snowstorm that created hazardous conditions across the region.

Another round of winter weather dropped snow across Washington, D.C., Maryland and Virginia. 

Winter storm warnings were scaled back in parts of the Baltimore metro area as snowfall totals came in lower than expected, but steady snow continues across Washington, DC. Gusty winds up to 40 mph and reduced visibility remain concerns, with up to a few more inches possible before the storm exits early Monday. 

Snowfall is underway in much of DC, Maryland, and Virginia. FOX 5's Gwen Tolbart has the latest forecast.

Most of the DMV is expected to see between three and six inches of snow starting, with some areas in the mountains and further east seeing more.

Rain is expected to move in overnight Saturday as we watch for the rain to become snow later in the day Sunday. FOX 5's Gwen Tolbart has the latest forecast.

The National Weather Service has expanded a Winter Storm Watch to cover the Washington, D.C., metro area as forecasters monitor a coastal storm that could bring accumulating snow to parts of the Mid-Atlantic late Sunday into Monday. Officials from the National Weather Service in Baltimore-Washington say the Winter Storm Watch — originally for other portions of the region — has now been expanded to include the DC metro area, reflecting increasing confidence that snow is possible this weekend.

Meteorologists are tracking snow potential Sunday night into Monday across the DMV — but forecast confidence on totals is still low. A storm system is expected to pull in colder air, setting the stage for wintry precipitation that could include snow, sleet, freezing rain, or a slushy mix. The biggest challenge: the major forecast models don’t agree yet. The European model shows a narrower zone of light accumulation near parts of central/southern Maryland and possibly D.C., while the American model paints a very different picture. Forecasters say small changes in the storm track and temperature profile could make the difference between a minor slushy event and more significant impacts — especially for the Monday morning commute. Keep checking updates as newer, higher-resolution models come into range.

A coastal storm is expected on Sunday, but major uncertainty remains leaving snowfall totals in question.
