A developing winter pattern is set to sweep across the Mid-Atlantic, delivering conditions that can be far more dangerous than they first appear. Unlike a classic snowstorm that blankets the landscape, freezing rain and light icy drizzle can quickly form an invisible layer over roads, sidewalks, and driveways.

Residents across Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, and Pennsylvania could also experience blustery winds paired with lingering cold air, creating an ideal setup for hard-to-detect ice.
