So the high temp Wednesday climbed well past freezing, which led to some melting of the snow we received last week. For today the mercury will climb back to the mid- to high-30s, leading to more melting that will be coupled by a mix of precipitation throughout the day—we have a reezing rain advisory in effect until 10 a.m.—that is expected to turn into snow for the evening rush. If you have to be somewhere in a timely fashion tonight, plan accordingly. You'll need it.
