Overview
- The National Weather Service has issued time-specific winter weather advisories for parts of the Mid-Atlantic and New England, with a Tuesday morning or evening mix changing to rain and creating slick bridges and overpasses.
- In the Philadelphia to D.C. corridor, light snow or freezing rain is expected near daybreak Tuesday before a rapid changeover to rain by late morning, with minimal snow accumulation outside higher terrain.
- Southern New England and New Hampshire face a midday-to-evening burst of snow Tuesday that transitions to freezing rain and then rain, with the Worcester Hills, Berkshires and nearby high elevations most prone to icing.
- A rapid warmup follows across much of the East and Midwest, with highs pushing into the 60s and even low 70s by late week in places such as Indiana, as multiple waves of rain move through.
- Repeated rainfall of up to two or three inches in spots could trigger localized flooding and drainage issues, even as winter storm warnings and advisories persist in Alaska’s Panhandle and some northern areas.
