...Wintry Mix Expected This Afternoon And Evening...
.High pressure to our north will be the provider of colder air as
precipitation works in from the south today. A mixed bag of
precipitation is expected for the central Appalachians with
accumulating snow and sleet along and north of Interstate 64.
Freezing rain will occur farther south along the spine of the
Blue Ridge.
...WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL MIDNIGHT EST
TONIGHT...
* WHAT...Mixed precipitation expected. Wet snow accumulations of
2 to 4 inches, with localized amounts up to 5 inches, mainly
higher ridges of the Alleghanys of Greenbrier and Bath
Counties and northward. Ice accumulations of a light glaze
farther south, except up to two tenths along the Blue Ridge
between Peaks of Otter and Fancy Gap.
* WHERE...Portions of southwest Virginia and southeast West
Virginia.
* WHEN...until midnight tonight.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Plan on slippery road conditions, mainly
at the higher elevations. Isolated power outages may occur. Be
prepared for reduced visibilities at times. Ground
temperatures are warm, so any freezing rain will be mainly in
the trees and elevated objects.
