The National Weather Service (NWS) has issued a Winter Weather Advisory that starts at 4am on Friday and goes until 7pm on Friday.

Per the NWS: “Snow expected. Total snow accumulations of 1 to 3 inches north of US-50/1-66 with amounts around 1 inch to the south. Plan on slippery road conditions. The hazardous conditions will impact the morning commute. Slow down and use caution while traveling. When venturing outside, watch your first few steps taken on steps, sidewalks, and driveways, which could be icy and slippery, increasing your risk of a fall and injury.”

We will have a Pencil Prediction for school closings and delays out later today along with an update on what to expect tomorrow. The map below shows a 38-41% chance at more than 2 inches tomorrow, but the issue will be the timing of the snow rather than the amount when it comes to impacts on schools.
