Passing snow showers Tuesday; cold, windy with temperatures in the 30s

The snow is still in the D.C. area Tuesday morning as the slow-moving nor’easter makes its way out of the region. Watch for slick roads and slippery sidewalks – and grab that jacket! It will be windy and cold!

We are still under the influence of that massive and slow-moving nor’easter, and that means we could still see some passing snow showers today on strong winds that may gust up to 35 mph.

Early Tuesday morning, we anticipate slick conditions on side streets and untreated sidewalks so be extra careful. High temperatures today will only reach the mid-30s in most areas and wind chills are in the low 20s.

We remain windy and cold again on Wednesday and will likely have to watch for those early slick spots again.

Some melting in the forecast in the Thursday-Friday time frame as temperatures rise into the 40s and near 50. Rain showers possible Friday, and another chance for rain or snow Saturday night and Sunday.
