The system arrived just before daybreak on Monday, Feb. 7 and is expected to wind down by around noontime when the temperature will rise above the freezing mark throughout the area.

There will be sleet and snow showers during the morning commute and through late Monday morning, with any snow then mixing with rain later in the morning before turning to all rain by around midday Monday, as the high temperature climbs to the mid to upper 30s.

"Plan on slippery road conditions," the National Weather Service said in a Hazardous Weather Statement issued Monday morning. 

The chance for a mix of rain and snow continues until around 1 a.m. Tuesday.

Tuesday will be mostly sunny with a high temperature climbing to the low 40s.
