A new winter storm is expected to start tonight and continue through Friday morning.  A mix of snow, sleet, and freezing rain will create hazardous driving conditions, possible power outages, and the potential for minor flooding. 

The forecast calls for winter precipitation tonight turning into rain Thursday afternoon, producing the potential for significant snowmelt and localized minor flooding Thursday afternoon.  Strong, damaging winds with gusts of up to 50 mph are possible Thursday evening which could cause some trees to topple, leading to scattered power outages.
