From VDOT:
It’s a winter weather whiplash weekend! Despite Friday’s springlike weather, and Saturday’s still-sunny calm, Sunday will bring a return of cold, damp, and wintry conditions that may affect your travel.
Mixed precipitation is forecast for the Fredericksburg area on Sunday morning, with the potential for light sleet, snow and rain starting before sunrise. Although accumulation is not anticipated on pavement, slick surfaces may develop on elevated surfaces, such as ramps, bridges and overpasses. VDOT crews will be staged early Sunday along Interstate 95 in the Fredericksburg area to monitor for any hazardous road conditions that may develop once precipitation begins. Crews will apply treatment materials as needed to address icing.
Heavy rain is anticipated in the Fredericksburg area, Northern Neck and Middle Peninsula during Sunday afternoon and evening. In coastal areas along the Northern and Middle Peninsula, minor flooding and gusting winds above 30 mph are possible.
Travelers should check 511Virginia.org for road conditions along their entire route before beginning a trip. Road conditions west of the Fredericksburg area may be more severe, with additional winter precipitation forecast along and west of the Blue Ridge.
To report a downed tree, debris, or other road hazard, contact VDOT’s Customer Service Center 24 hours a day at 1-800-FOR-ROAD (367-7623) or online at my.vdot.virginia.gov.
