Winter Weather Advisory in effect from 10 p.m. tonight to 10 a.m. Friday
Just when we thought we were past the worst winter weather threat of this season with minimal consequences, at least off the mountainsides, Warren County Emergency Services Coordinator Rick Farrall has issued a snow and ice warning for Thursday night, Friday morning in Warren County. Well, Punxsutawney Phil did see his shadow on Ground Hog Day Tuesday – though we’re about a month and a half from that “six MORE weeks of winter” he predicted for 2021.
As for the February 4-5, mid-winter forecast, here is Warren County Emergency Services warning on potentially hazardous driving and walking conditions for tonight and tomorrow morning:
- WHAT – Mixed precipitation expected. Total snow accumulations of up to two inches and ice accumulations of a light glaze.
- WHERE – Portions of western Maryland, central and northwest Virginia and eastern West Virginia.
- WHEN – From 10 PM this evening to 10 AM EST (Eastern Standard Time) Friday.
- IMPACTS – Plan on slippery road conditions. The hazardous conditions could impact the morning commute.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS
Slow down and use caution while traveling.
When venturing outside, watch your first few steps taken on steps, sidewalks, and driveways, which could be icy and slippery, increasing your risk of a fall and injury.
