Full Notification

WINTER STORM WATCH IN EFFECT FROM THURSDAY EVENING THROUGH FRIDAY EVENING.

* WHAT: Rain will be changing to an icy mix of freezing rain and
sleet, before changing to all snow, with significant
accumulations of snow and ice anticipated.

* TIMING: Thursday night and Friday

* MAIN IMPACT: Icing of roads, trees, and power lines will occur
first. This will be followed by accumulating snowfall.
Significant accumulations of snow and ice are possible.

* OTHER IMPACTS: Expect possible major impacts on travel to work
or school Friday morning. This is a developing situation and may
change, but this Watch means conditions are favorable for
significant accumulations of snow and ice, so be prepared for
impact travel due to snow and ice. In addition, gusty winds,
especially late Thursday night and early Friday, may heighten
the dangers related to icing, and result in isolated to
scattered losses of power by felling ice or snow weighted
lines.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

A winter storm watch means there is a potential for significant
snow...sleet...or ice accumulations that would greatly impact

upgraded to a warning if winter storm conditions become more
certain.
