....A BRIEF BURST OF SNOW WILL COINCIDE WITH THE WEDNESDAY MORNING
COMMUTE AND RESULT IN SLIPPERY TRAVEL...

A quick burst of snow will overspread the region from west to east
between 5 and 8 am Wednesday morning. The snow will be short-
lived and exit the coast by early afternoon perhaps even ending as
a bit of rain. However...the burst of snow will coincide with part
of the morning commute with a quick 1-2" of snow and localized 3"
possible. Motorists should be prepared for a period of snow
covered roads and reduced visibility for the morning commute.
Temperatures will rise well above freezing by afternoon
alleviating any issues.
