Burlington, VT – A storm front is expected to move through Vermont tonight, bringing snow showers and possible snow squalls to much of the state through Tuesday morning. According to the National Weather Service, the snow will begin late tonight around 1 a.m. and continue until noon, with the heaviest snow likely falling between 3 a.m. and 7 a.m.
Areas in the valleys will see accumulations of up to an inch, while higher elevations in the mountains could see 3 to 5 inches of snow.

The snow will shift towards the mountain regions by Tuesday afternoon, with the heaviest snow occurring in the upslope areas. The National Weather Service has issued a winter weather alert, urging residents to plan ahead if traveling and remain alert to changing conditions overnight.
