The timing for the system is Friday night, Jan. 10, into Saturday, Jan. 11, according to the National Weather Service.

The heaviest snow and ice are predicted for the south of Washington, DC, but accumulating snow and slippery travel will range from the Midwest to southern New England, where snow should be "intermittent and spotty in nature," AccuWeather says.

Areas in the lightest shade of blue in the first image above are projected to see 1 to 3 inches of snowfall from the storm. Up to 6 inches is possible in the next shade, and up to a foot in locations in the darkest blue.

"While a general 1 to perhaps 3 inches of snow is forecast, there can be pockets where a coating or a dusting of snow could be all that falls from the storm, especially along the upper mid-Atlantic coast," AccuWeather Senior Meteorologist Brett Anderson said.
