According to the DWD, it can be slippery again due to slush and freezing moisture.
Heavy snowfall has been announced for Tuesday morning.
This turns into sleet in many places during the day.
It should be really windy in the evening: especially for the mountains, the meteorologists announce sometimes heavy storms, on high alpine peaks there is even a threat of gale-force gusts - snow drifts included.
Winter has definitely arrived in the Free State.
