Fast-falling snow moves eastward overnight as quickly as it arrived. Some snow showers may spread to the area a couple of hours after sunrise. Although temperatures are on the cold side today, we're on edge when the sun's increasing angle does a pretty good job of eating up the snow. In other words, don't plan on it continuing in the areas where it is on Earth.
