Maryland Winter Weather Advisory Calls for 1 to 2 Inches of Snow

Get the ice scraper ready. The National Weather Service is calling for 1 to 2 inches of snow and has issued a winter weather advisory from 6 p.m. Thursday to 5 a.m. Friday. A winter weather advisory means that snow may make travel difficult.

Included in the advisory are Baltimore, Carroll, Frederick, Harford, Howard and Montgomery counties.

Snow is expected to start in the early evening and continue overnight. Up to 3 inches of snow are possible in some areas.

Temperatures will be in the upper 20s, according to weather officials.

Travel may be difficult due to limited visibility, and roads may be icy and snow-covered. Drivers are advised to use caution. State highway crews began treating roads with brine on Wednesday in anticipation of the winter weather.
