A winter weather advisory from the National Weather Service will remain in effect until 6 p.m. Saturday in the Baltimore region, as the metropolitan area braces for snow accumulations between one and three inches.

Snow showers had been expected to end around noon. A small amount of snow had accumulated in downtown Baltimore on Saturday morning, though major thoroughfares appeared clear. It was the second-straight morning that residents awoke to find a light dusting. No major accidents were reported.

The forecast for later Saturday afternoon calls for mostly cloudy skies and a high of 32 degrees.

The next wintry weather could come Tuesday. The forecasting models are examining a storm forecast to develop over the Gulf states. It could move to the northeast, while another disturbance over the Plains states moves east.
