Some slick spots possible early this morning as temperatures remain near freezing. Otherwise, not as cold today with highs about 40 to 45 across the region. Sun makes a comeback this weekend. Another cold shot to start the work week. Forecast details: www.washingtonpost.com/weather/2025...

In some areas, this is freezing rain or a rain-snow mix. Either way, surfaces may turn icy. Be careful

Grade our forecast! ❄️📊

Overall, we think our call lined up pretty well with what fell.
That said, the 1–2" zone did creep a bit farther north into areas we had in the dusting–1" area.
And within the 1–2" zone, a few spots even got 2"+.

We welcome feedback and thanks for following our coverage! 🙏🌨️

Be careful out there this evening! ⚠️❄️
Temps are in the 20s to near 30, and a light mist is falling — enough to create a deceptive, dangerous glaze on untreated surfaces.
Take it slow on sidewalks and roads, especially ramps, bridges, and overpasses. 🛑🚶‍♂️🚗

A bit of freezing rain is expected overnight. Crews will be out taking care of slick spots but needless to say, take it slow if you go out. And if you're drinking, needless to say, don't get behind the wheel. #ArlWX www.arlingtonva.us/Government/D...

❄️ It's official! DC has its first inch of snow this winter. Reagan National Airport, the city’s official observing station, reported 1.1" as of 10am. That may go up a bit, as one of the last bands of steadier light snow is currently drifting across DC and the Beltway region.
