Winter storm timeline — here’s how we see it unfolding

We’re getting a lot of questions about when things go downhill. Here’s our current thinking for the D.C. area (timing may shift a bit as we refine):

🕓 4–10 p.m. Saturday
Light snow develops from SW → NE
Temps: 16–20°

🌙 10 p.m. Sat – 4 a.m. Sun
Snow spreads and intensifies
Accumulation begins quickly once steady
Temps: 16–20°

⏰ 4–10 a.m. Sunday (worst window)
Heavy snow at times, rapid accumulation
Snow may begin mixing with sleet/freezing rain, mainly south & east of the Beltway
Temps: 15–20°

🕙 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. Sunday
North & west: mostly snow, some mixing possible
Near the Beltway: snow + sleet + freezing rain
South & east: mainly sleet and freezing rain
Temps: 18–24°

🌆 4–10 p.m. Sunday
Mixed precip gradually tapers SW → NE
Temps: 20–25°

🌙 Late Sunday night – early Monday
Lingering mixed precip or freezing drizzle possible
Temps: 17–22°

⚠️ Bottom line:
We expect the worst travel conditions predawn through mid-morning Sunday, but with bitter cold, untreated roads will stay treacherous long after the heaviest snow ends.
