While the timing looks to be late Thursday night into early afternoon Friday there are still some uncertainties. This will be a fast moving system and it will not have any blocking to slow the storm down. While it does appear some will see snow, the big question is how much?
It could be a 1-3″ or 3-6″ storm with pockets of more. Our first calls will be out by 1pm tomorrow.
Here is the NWS expected snowfall map through 7am Friday. NOTE this is NOT a forecast and that the storm will still have hours before ends.

While the ground is very warm the snow will start very heavy towards the beginning of the storm and it will help cool the surface down. Monday morning commute will be a mess, it might be good to stay home if you are in areas under the Winter Storm Warning.
