A weak and fast-moving, but sufficient storm will spread a swath of accumulating snow over portions of West Virginia, northwestern Virginia, western and northern Maryland and central and southeastern Pennsylvania late Monday night into Tuesday.
From 1 to 3 inches of snow and a bit of rain is forecast for most areas with less accumulation on most roads. Consult your local AccuWeather.com forecast for specific amounts.
However, since the snow will begin when road surface temperatures are chilly, during the late night and early morning, some of the snow will stick and make for slippery travel.

People should expect travel delays Tuesday. Motorists are advised that some roads may not have been treated and can be quite slippery. (Photos.com image)

The snow will end from west to east across the central Appalachians and eastern Pennsylvania during the afternoon and early evening.
Untreated areas made wet by the snow can become icy during the evening as the sky clears and temperatures slip below freezing.
Like all storms, this one will have a northern and western edge. No accumulating snow is forecast over northern Ohio, northwestern Pennsylvania and along much of the southern tier of New York.
