School Delays In DC On Wednesday?

A new forecast suggests that school delays could be possible in the D.C. area on Wednesday due to a wintry mix that could make roads treacherous -- so be prepared.

The Washington Post's Capital Weather Gang predicts an icy mix is likely to break out early on Wednesday with temperatures near freezing.

"Because this event is likely to coincide with the morning commute, the iciness could slow down travel and delay schools, especially in these colder areas," CWG says.

The precipitation will likely happen between 4-7 a.m., when temperatures will be below or near freezing. Precipitation may start as snow to the north and west of D.C., before switching over to freezing rain.
