The calendar may say spring, but don’t be tricked into putting away those shovels just yet.

Spring officially arrived today at 12:15 p.m., but snow isn’t far behind.

About 4 to 8 inches of snow could fall today into Wednesday, according to AccuWeather meteorologist Evan Duffey.

Duffey said our region isn’t in the core of the storm. “That’s going to be off to our south, but we’re still going to be seeing at least some disruptive snow.”

Duffey said he believes 4 to 8 inches is “certainly in the realm of possibility.”

The snow is going to start today, though temperatures are going to be on the warmer side in the upper 30s, which Duffey said should prevent the snow from sticking to the roads.

“Should be no major accumulation on roadways, still have some mixing going on overnight as well,” he said. “The snow probably starts sticking overnight, good chance for accumulation tomorrow late morning hours into the afternoon.”

Duffey said he believes the big issues with the storm could come during the evening rush with possibly a few slick spots to watch out for.

The real troublemaker, he said, figures to be Wednesday.

“Tomorrow’s a rough day,” he said. “On top of the snow, winds probably the strongest at 12-25 mph.”

That, Duffey said, is what has people nervous after the storm that resulted in thousands of people without power.

“It’s not going to be as bad as that,” he said. “Could be some issues, just not as bad as that.”

However, Duffey said some areas will see less than 4 to 8 inches, and others will have more.

“There could be some pretty big differences from north to south,” he said.

“We’re in that tough spot where you go a little bit north or south and it could be a totally different situation.”

Duffey said Wednesday will be a chilly night, with temperatures dropping down to 23 degrees.

“If we have any wet roads that linger that haven’t gotten treated, could be an issue tomorrow night,” he said.

More chilly nights are in store Thursday through Sunday night, as evening temperatures are expected to stay in the 20s, Duffey said.

Daytime highs will struggle to get above 40 Thursday and Friday, and reach 40 Saturday and Sunday, he said.

For this time of year, temperatures should see a high of 51, and normally a low of 30, Duffey said.

“Chillier than normal, typical on the backside of the system,” he said.
