..GUSTY SNOW SHOWERS THIS EVENING
SNOW SHOWERS ARE LIKELY (50-70% CHANCE) TO DEVELOP ALONG AND BEHIND A
COLD FRONT THIS EVENING. SNOW WILL MOVE FROM WEST TO EAST ACROSS THE
AREA BETWEEN 5PM AND 2AM CST.
SNOW COULD BECOME HEAVY AT TIMES WITH LOCALIZED ACCUMULATIONS
POSSIBLY EXCEEDING ONE INCH, THOUGH NOT PARTICULARLY LIKELY (10-20%
CHANCE). IN ADDITION, WEST- NORTHWEST WINDS WILL OCCASIONALLY GUST
BETWEEN 25-35 MPH, PERHAPS RESULTING IN WIND- WHIPPED SNOW AND
SHARPLY LOWER VISIBILITY OVER SHORT DISTANCES.
THE COMBINATION OF REDUCED VISIBILITY (ONE-HALF MILE OR LESS) AND
SNOW-COVERED ROADS MAY RESULT IN DIFFICULT TRAVEL CONDITIONS THIS

THERE WAS CAREFUL CONSIDERATION OF A WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY.
HOWEVER, BOTH THE CONFIDENCE AND COVERAGE OF ADVISORY-LEVEL
CONDITIONS REMAIN UNCLEAR AT THIS TIME.
