Snow Latest: Forecasts Call for Friday Commute Headache

Spring is just around the corner, but we're going to be playing the "How Much Snow" game at least one more time late Thursday and into Friday.

The latest forecast from the National Weather Service puts the snow forecast at 80 percent chance in the overnight hours and Friday morning.

The Weather Channel forecast suggests the region could see 1-4 inches, though this number has fluctuated with each updated forecast.

The Capital Weather Gang warns the Friday commute may be impacted, even where light snow is forecasted.

"There is a chance we see a period of snow heavy enough to create slushy or snowy roads … which could lead to some delays Friday morning," they write. Warmer temps Friday should improve road conditions.
