As of 6 PM, winter weather advisories were in effect for northern and western sections of Virginia, in the anticipation of a mix of winter precipitation on Tuesday. There are no advisories, watches, or warnings for the Richmond metro area. Areas in and around Richmond will see a period of snow early Tuesday, transitioning to rain by early afternoon. We will have a narrow window (roughly 7 AM to 10 AM) where surface temperatures are at or just below freezing after the snow begins. A light accumulation of snow will be possible early on, but with temperatures rising above freezing by 10 AM, no additional accumulation is expected. A more significant accumulation of ice and snow will be possible farther north and west. I'll have another update later tonight when the new upper-air data becomes available. For an early look at how things are developing, tune in to CBS 6 tomorrow morning at 4:30 AM. Meteorologist Carrie Rose will have the latest weather information in our special early newscast.
