🚨 Big, important forecast update: more ice, higher outage risk
We’ve released a new map and revised the storm timeline. Here’s what’s changed — and what matters most:
• Totals similar, but more sleet than before. Less pure snow, more sleet mixing in. Some spots could stack 1–3 inches of sleet on top of snow.
• Nearly everyone flips to sleet. Even near the PA line. The change from snow → sleet may happen quickly south to north Sunday morning into early afternoon.
• Freezing rain risk is rising. Especially south of the Beltway, where icing on trees and power lines raises power-outage concerns. We’re most worried from Fredericksburg to Southern Maryland.
• Snow may start later Saturday night. Beltway likely after 10 p.m.; dinner plans probably OK if you’re home before late evening.
• Not a blockbuster snow, but a severe storm. Faster changeover limits snow totals, but this will be high-impact because of cold temps before, during, and after. Expect a cement-like mix of snow + ice that won’t melt for days.
• Clear early and often. Shovel and salt as it falls. If you wait until the end, this hardens fast and becomes much harder to remove.
“It feels so wonderful to see how happy all the kids and families are, and also to see Caps players who enjoy this event.”
