The National Weather Service has officially upgraded their winter storm warning for Wednesday and Thursday to a winter storm warning, meaning that we’re officially in for another round of bone-chilling weather.

According to the warning, we could be in for up to two to four inches of snow between 10 a.m. Wednesday and 10 a.m. Thursday. Of course, no winter storm would be complete without sleet or freezing rain, and the NWS says we could get a nice mixing of it as well.
