Sunday Snow Update
By: Ryan Fannock
10:45AM UPDATE: Good morning! Just a quick update for you guys regarding the snow you'll see today. There's some scattered light snow showers lingering around the area this morning. They will not amount to much more than a light dusting. The main batch of snow will arrive AFTER 1pm this afternoon. It will be a light snow event lasting until the evening hours. Most of us will pick up 1-3 inches out of this one. Even though it won't be a lot of snow, be careful on the roads this afternoon. Any snow that falls will stick instantaneously because it's only in the 20's outside. Have a great day!
