At the outset of the system, snow showers will occur throughout the region, and areas where the temperature stays at or below the freezing mark overnight could see up to half a foot of accumulation.
In areas where the temperature stays around the mid-30s, there will be a mix of rain, sleet, and snow.
Some locations farthest north and west could see 6 to 12 inches of snow. In those spots, snow will last into the Thursday morning commute, resulting in hazardous travel.
