Winter Weather Advisory North & West

A Winter Weather Advisory has been issued for areas near and west of Charlottesville and all along I-81. This also includes Buckingham and Appomatox counties in central VA and is in effect until 4 AM.



Temperatures continue to hover around freezing across the state. In addition, isolated light showers or even sprinkles have developed. Once on the ground, the rain could freeze and cause some slick spots on roads this evening and into early tonight - especially on bridges and overpasses. Here is a map to track temperatures (it will continually update through the night).



There is also a Winter Weather Advisory from Fredericksburg northward into D.C. and is in effect until 10 AM for the same reasons stated above. Use extreme caution if traveling north on I-95 this evening and tonight!

Luckily I'm expecting temperatures to hold steady for the next couple hours in central Virginia. Temps will then begin to rise after midnight, so that the threat for slick spots will quickly diminish.
