Sorry, forgot current conditions

26 and overcast.

NWS Buffalo dropped highs tomorrow, maybe the cold air won't move out as fast and move back in quicker

6:10PM in Sterling, VA
Temp: 33F
DP: 18F

Currently only under WWA for minor icing

. However, if the ETA has anything to say about it, the NWS is going to be wishing they'd chosen otherwise... it has around 0.75" QPF before we rise above freezing tomorrow morning. I think they're being overly conservative due to their bust from Tuesday where they went with WSW when none of the models were showing us staying below freezing long enough for a major ice event.
