A little bit of snow is possible in Vermont today, particularly in the higher elevations.

Much of New York and Vermont, including Burlington, are under a hazardous weather warning with anything from a dusting to three inches of snow possible, depending on location, according to the National Weather Service (NWS). The snow will likely begin during the morning commute.

“A quick moving system will bring snow showers to the North Country today with light accumulations. 1-2 inches are possible across southern Vermont, up to 3 inches for higher terrain, and a dusting to around an inch is expected elsewhere,” the advisory says. “Some slick conditions will be possible for the morning commute.”

By the afternoon, the weather is forecasted to shift to rain.

“Afternoon showers in valleys should be mainly rain, but some snow could mix in at times if precipitation rates increase,” the Forecaster’s Discussion says. “The winds will remain breezy with this system, so gusts to around 30 mph are anticipated keeping conditions feeling quite brisk for late March.”

What’s the prediction for the rest of the week in Burlington?

It’s a cold start to the week.

AccuWeather is forecasting their could be a few snow or rain showers again on Tuesday, with a low of 33 degrees and a high of 44.

On Wednesday, the forecast is “cloudy with a flurry” and a low of 28 degrees and a high of 41.

Thursday is the first day of the week there is no precipitation in the forecast, with partly sunny skies and a low of 31 degrees and a high of 49.

Friday is expected to be cloudy, and so is Saturday, which could hamper views of the partial solar eclipse, which will start right at dawn on Saturday.
