Heads-up, you might stay home on Wednesday. A strong storm will bring blizzard conditions spanning most of the day on Wednesday. Snow comes to an end Wednesday afternoon but winds won't drop off until Wednesday night.
Here's the latest on the upcoming blizzard, strong winds, and expected snowfall. Right now, we're leaning closer to the lower end of our snowfall ranges, but we did incorporate the high upside/potential this system has. Bottom line -- stay home and stay safe!
