A cold front crossing the area overnight, with a wave of low pressure moving up along it, will bring about a period of snow with temperatures falling below freezing, along with a brief period of gusty winds. Snow could accumulate one to two inches. This will lead to snow covered roads, with moisture freezing beneath the snow, along with reduced visibility. Be prepared for slick spots on untreated roads early this morning, particularly on bridges and overpasses. Please allow extra time to reach your destination.
