Less than 1/10 ″ of ice accumulation is expected, but the roads will still be icy and muddy.
With temperatures around the freezing mark and just above, this could reduce the total snowfall in areas south of Pittsburgh to about 2-4 ″.
Most areas will pick up 3-6 ″ at night and then an additional 1-3 ″ on Monday and Tuesday.
