MANHATTAN — Snow returns to the area by late Tuesday afternoon.

A Winter Weather Advisory goes into effect from 3 p.m. today through 9 a.m. Wednesday for Riley, Pottawatomie and most surrounding counties. Further north, a Winter Storm Warning is posted for Marshall and Washington counties.

The forecast is calling for mixed precipitation with total snow accumulations of 3 to 5 inches and up to one-tenth of an inch of ice accumulation. Those totals will be higher to the north. This will cause slippery road conditions and could impact the evening commute tonight and morning commute Wednesday.

According to NWS Meteorologist Kyle Poage Monday, Manhattan has already seen 20.6 inches of accumulating snow this season. Normal snowfall by this time each year is 13 inches.
