8-15 inches of snow are forecast for the region as a huge winter storm moves into our area. Forecasters are calling for the snow to start out mid to late Wednesday afternoon and continue into Thursday afternoon with most of the snow falling overnight Wednesday. A quarter inch of ice or more could also be possible along with gusty winds, causing blowing and drifting of snow.

He said they will open the shelters only if needed.
