Heavy snow expected, briefly mixing with sleet at times through early this afternoon. Total snow accumulations between 20 and 30 inches. Winds gusting as high as 50 mph will result in considerable blowing and drifting snow and blizzard conditions this afternoon into Monday. Travel will become very difficult to impossible with whiteout conditions. Gusty winds to 50 mph combined with heavy snow load could bring down tree branches and cause power outages. The Monday morning commute will be severely impacted.
