(WSYM) - FOX47 News is helping inform you of the top local stories in your neighborhood. Happening Today helps neighbors know what is going on throughout the day.
Today's Weather Forecast
A somewhat disorganized disturbance will be passing through the area today bringing us an occasional, light wintry mix or some snow showers. If there are a few slick spots on the roads, salt should work fine with temperatures rising into the low to mid 30. As far as snow, nothing should be heavy and any accumulation will be minor with our northern counties maybe getting an inch or so by the time things wind down tonight.
