...SLIPPERY TRAVEL POSSIBLE LATE THIS MORNING AND ESPECIALLY THIS
AFTERNOON ACROSS THE NORTHERN WORCESTER HILLS...
A brief period of snow overspreads the northern Worcester Hills
late this morning into early afternoon. Any snow accumulations
should be rather light on the order of a coating to 1 inch. The
snow may change to a brief period of sleet and freezing rain
during the afternoon before changing to all rain by early evening.
While any snow and ice amounts will be very minor, untreated roads
may become slippery by late this morning and especially this

Hills at elevations near and above 1000 feet. Motorists planning
travel later today in this region should be prepared for slippery
travel and allow extra time to reach their destination.

...PATCHY DENSE FOG POSSIBLE TONIGHT INTO THE EARLY MORNING HOURS
TUESDAY...
Patchy dense fog will be possible across portions of north and
central Georgia including the Atlanta metro area tonight into the
morning hours on Tuesday. Visibilities could be reduced to a
quarter mile or less at times in this region. Morning rain showers
will begin to erode any remaining patchy dense fog but will
likely cause lowered visibility within heavier downpours.
If you encounter reduced visibilities while driving, slow down,
increase the distance between you and other vehicles in front of
you, and use your low-beam headlights. Any remaining patchy fog
is expected to clear during the late morning hours.

...SNOW RETURNING TO ANCHORAGE AND THE MATANUSKA VALLEY TUESDAY...
Winter weather is going to return to the Anchorage Bowl as early
as Tuesday morning as mixed rain and snow turns to all snow, which
will likely impact the morning commute. This storm is very
complex and the details still remain uncertain. But snow is
expected to continue on and off through the afternoon and then
increase again in the evening and overnight. Snow totals overall
for this storm are currently expected to be in the 5-8" range,
although higher amounts are possible. Snow will develop later and
there will be less accumulation across the Matanuska Valley, with
4-6" expected by late Tuesday night. Commuters from the Valley
should be cautious as snow may rapidly develop for the morning
commute heading into Anchorage. This is a rapidly changing storm
so stay tuned for more information.
