The main time frame of concern is 3 p.m. until 8 p.m., with a light wintry mix to develop first in counties west of the city.

A light glaze of ice of less than .10" is possible. This could yield an icy glaze on bridges, roadways and vehicle windshields, and up to 1" of snow and sleet is possible far north and west.
