Winter Weather Advisory Issued for Montgomery County

Winter storm is expected to bring snow, create hazardous travel conditions Saturday.

The National Weather Service has issued a winter weather advisory for snow for Montgomery County on Saturday, from 3 to 6 a.m.

The NWS said 1 to 3 inches of snow was in the forecast, with the majority of snowfall accumulating between 3 and 5 a.m. Temperatures will reach the upper 20s to mid 30s.

The storm is expected to create hazardous travel conditions Saturday.

To prepare, the State Highway Administration has sent crews to pre-treat Montgomery County roads with a salt brine.

State Highway officials have asked drivers to stay off the roads until later in the day on Saturday to give crews time to clear the roads. If you must travel, allot extra time and drive slowly.

What is up with the weather services these days? I haven't seen a correct forecast in months. Once again, they're wrong. I haven't seen a flake of snow yet today, and it's 10am. I think I could probably make better weather forecasts by divining the leftovers from my Christmas turkey.

I agree--use the wishbone--I believe the weather should start asking all to send their wishbones to them.

It's always best to look out the window or open the door. And avoid the weather hysteria on broadcast news stations.
