The wider storm
A warm front passed over the Ohio Valley. Due to a very cold ground, the rain showers in the wake of this warm front created a slushy layer of ice on road surfaces. While temperature sensors climbed above freezing in most locations, the rain still froze on area roadways. Numerous accidents and road closures were the result of this wintery weather.
