The snow started falling sometime after midnight and already we have a few inches on the ground making the morning commute extremely hazardous. The evening commute will be even worse, it seems. As highs reach the mid-20s, snow will continue to fall throughout the day, piling up 5 to 7 inches by the end of the day. Overnight, lows will be in the mid-teens with even more snow. By the time the storm moves out tomorrow morning, you could see close to a foot of snow wherever you are.
