I-95 and Beltway corridors aren’t likely to be affected. The frozen precipitation will be focused to the west and north.
The best overlap of moderately heavy precipitation with more plentiful cold air is west of the city. Higher elevations on the ridgetops along Skyline Drive could see a tenth of an inch of ice coating, and perhaps an inch or more of snow. The greatest impact to travel can be expected in this purple-shaded areas on the map above, where winter weather advisories are in effect Sunday night.
Cold air may provide frozen precipitation north and northwest of the city, but those areas are also where precipitation is expected to be the lightest overall. Still, light snow accumulation mainly on grass could happen near Frederick and Leesburg, plus points north and west of these two locations. Estimated snowfall for Sunday night should generally be less than an inch, according to the National Weather Service.
Ice is always of greatest concern to power lines and for travel, but luckily that stays in higher elevations, perhaps even higher than much of I-81’s pavement. The focus of ice for this storm is in the highest elevations of the Allegany Mountains, west of I-81. That said, a few icy spots between Frederick and Hagerstown can’t be ruled out, so drive with caution in these areas.
