North of US 24, snow totals of 2-4" are expected, while south of US 24, totals will be between 1-3". Heavy, wet snow will quickly change to heavy rain around daybreak, leading to a tricky morning commute. Roads will be slick and slushy so take it slow! Untreated roads are likely to become hazardous for travel. Roads conditions will gradually improve throughout the morning as temperatures rise above freezing.
There was enough snow on January 7 to transform Bluffton's Motter Metro Park from a study in beige to a wonderland of white. Should the area ever get enough snow for snow sports, signs remind visitors that snowmobiles are not allowed in the park.
