Temperatures are hovering around freezing in Metro Richmond at this time, with freezing rain falling in some spots still. Temperatures will gradually all rise above the freezing mark through the afternoon, meaning all precipitation from Richmond and south will be just rain by tonight. North of Richmond to Hanover, there will continue to be a winter mix of snow, sleet, and freezing rain this afternoon. The northern third of the state will continue to have snow this afternoon, accumulating up to 1" to 3".
Until temperatures rise above freezing at any particular location, rain will freeze on contact with the surface, adding to the glaze of ice already covering parts of Central Virginia. This will continue to mean dangerous traveling conditions until the ice begins to melt later this afternoon.
