The initial band of snow will arrive between 7 p.m. and 10 p.m. from west to east.
Any way you slice it, this year has been downright lame. Perhaps a dud of epic or record proportion.
As expected, the snow came and went quickly with this storm, now it is onto the sleet, freezing rain and rain.
The biggest question is how much snow can we get on the front end before the change to ice and rain?
Freezing rain will make for some tricky travel late tonight and early on Thursday.
