Wakefield, VA – The National Weather Service in Wakefield reports that a winter storm will continue overnight before tapering off by Sunday morning. Updated guidance shows reduced snowfall totals across portions of central Virginia and the Lower Maryland Eastern Shore.
According to the National Weather Service, Winter Weather Advisories have been trimmed as the storm trends weaker in many areas. However, southeastern Virginia and northeastern North Carolina remain under higher-impact zones, where 4 to 8 inches of snow are still possible. Localized areas could see slightly higher amounts.
The heaviest snowfall is expected through Sunday afternoon, with peak impacts late Saturday night into early Sunday morning. Areas north of the advisory zone should see totals taper quickly to 1–2 inches, while locations farther south may experience stronger winds and blowing snow.
Drivers are urged to use caution, as slippery roads and low visibility are expected, particularly along the North Carolina coast. The Weather Service also warns that strong winds could lead to blowing and drifting snow across parts of the region.
