Thresholds (First Graphic)
| None |
No winter weather
is expected during the period. |
| General |
A light mix
of precipitation or flurries is expected. However,
no accumulations or hazards to motorists are anticipated. |
| Minor |
Accumulations are expected to be
very light (less than 1/2" of snow, or a trace
of ice/sleet) and will be primarily a nuisance to
motorists. Bridges, overpasses, and elevated highways
may be susceptible to icing. |
| Moderate |
Moderate
accumulations (< 1/10" of ice, < 2"
of snow, or < 1/2" of sleet) are expected.
Many roads will be slick and ice-covered. Motorists
are urged to exercise extreme caution. Bridges, overpasses,
and elevated highways will be especially hazardous. |
| High |
Significant
accumulations of snow (> 2"), ice (> 0.25"),
sleet (> 1/2"), or mixed precipitation are
expected. Major highways will be snow or ice-covered
and travel will be extremely hazardous. Secondary
roads, along with bridges, overpasses, and elevated
highways, will be virtually impassable. Scattered
power outages are also likely. |
| Severe |
Severe
winter storm anticipated with large accumulations
of snow (> 4"), ice (> 0.25"), or
mixed precipitation. Travel will be severely limited
if not impossible. Power outages may also affect a
significant portion of the area. |
