Special Weather Statement issued January 10 at 1:39PM EST by NWS Wilmington OH (details ...)
Light snow is expected across the area early Sunday morning. Minor snow accumulations are possible. Temperatures around freezing will support the development of slick spots, especially on elevated and untreated surfaces. Additional snow showers are expected throughout the morning with temperatures dropping into the mid and upper 20s. As the snow showers move through, quick bursts of snow will reduce visibility and result in light snow accumulations which may cover roadways. If traveling Sunday, allow for some extra time to reach your destination and be prepared for rapidly changing driving conditions.
