ST. MARYS COUNTY, Md. A winter storm watch remains in effect for St. Marys County from Wednesday morning through Thursday morning, with the potential for heavy snow that could disrupt travel. But just how much snow will fall? That depends on which forecast you believe.

The National Weather Service projects total snowfall between 3 and 6 inches, warning that the storm could create slippery road conditions and impact the Wednesday evening commute. However, some weather forecasters are taking a more cautious approach, predicting lower totals in the range of 1 to 3 inches, citing uncertainty in how far north the heavier snow will reach.

Snowfall is expected to begin by late Wednesday morning or midday, but meteorologists agree that the storm’s exact track remains uncertain. While some areas could see a winter wonderland, others may end up with just a light coating.

Transportation officials are urging residents to stay alert for updates and prepare for potentially hazardous roads, even if snowfall amounts end up on the lower end. Whether it’s a dusting or a more significant accumulation, drivers should plan for slower travel and changing conditions.

As the storm nears, forecasters will continue refining their predictions—so keep an eye on the latest updates before making any winter weather plans!
