A storm moving up the East Coast on Tuesday could bring a mix of snow, sleet, freezing rain, and rain to parts of our region — especially west of the Blue Ridge.
Precipitation is expected to begin before sunrise, with some areas seeing a quick burst of snow or sleet before changing over. East of the Blue Ridge, most places will turn to a cold rain shortly after onset. Conditions dry out Tuesday night as high pressure returns, leading to several cold days ahead.
