Winter Weather February 22, 2026 – February 24, 2026 · Buchanan, Virginia

The wider storm

From February 22nd to February 24th, light snow amounts fell across southwest Virginia in the midst of a low pressure system moving up from the south. Unseasonably warm temperatures in the days leading up to this event allowed for initial precipitation to fall as rain in Dickenson and Buchanan Counties, before changing over to all snow shortly after midnight on February 22nd. From there, intermittent snow showers through the 24th led to a range of 2 to 4 inches of snow across southwest Virginia. The storm tracked to the northeast during the predawn hours of February 24th, bringing this winter event to an end.
