I do not have a good feeling about this morning's commute... after freezing drizzle all night... a batch of heavier icy mix moving in this morning. https://t.co/9Zu52p0Muk pic.twitter.com/N8IcPeXzqr

All the precipitation should wind down by 6 p.m., except for a little remaining freezing drizzle.
The most intense precipitation with THIS storm is not this evening but early Thursday morning with a transition to rain in the SE (which is why the Advisory ends earlier there) A lot more snow up north from this system. #wiwx pic.twitter.com/rbWcinVPMK

The winds pick up and it gets cold again tonight and into tomorrow. We may dip close to zero by tomorrow morning, with wind chills as low as -20.
High temperatures tomorrow will struggle to reach 10 degrees. It will be a cold but nice start to the weekend.
Some light snow is likely on Sunday with a couple inches possible.
