• Monday: Snow tapers off in the Ohio Valley and much of Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and the New York City area during the morning, but should linger in the central Appalachians and Mid-Atlantic (West Virginia, northern Virginia, Maryland, Delaware) much of the day. The precipitation will be moving east, but the rain/ice line and ice/snow line will sag south during the day as cold air bleeds south. As a result, much of North Carolina goes from morning rain to afternoon freezing rain or sleet; in southern Virginia, the transition goes from early morning rain to late morning wintry mix and afternoon snow in many areas.
