Discussion
Low pressure will intensify off the Mid-Atlantic coastline today and push very slowly to the north as it encounters a blocking pattern in the atmosphere. Any mixed precipitation this morning should change back to all snow by the afternoon as colder air wraps around the intensifying storm off the Mid-Atlantic coastline. The snow can continue at varying rates tonight and early Tuesday and the winds through this period will be quite strong as well. Total snow accumulations for this winter storm in the DC metro region can reach the 6-10 inch range by early tomorrow.
