The National Weather Service has issued a Winter Storm Watch from 1 a.m. to 1 p.m. Monday for D.C. and points south of Interstate 66 and U.S. Route 50. Forecasters expect heavy snow late Sunday through Monday afternoon, with total accumulations of between 3 and 6 inches possible.

- A winter storm warning will be in effect from 1 a.m. until 4 p.m. Monday across the region.
- A tight gradient of snowfall accumulation just north of the District means small nudges in the storm system’s path…
