Winter Weather in Eastern Greenbrier, West Virginia

Winter Weather January 23, 2015 – January 24, 2015 · Eastern Greenbrier, West Virginia

What the National Weather Service wrote

Ice accretion across the eastern part of the county averaged one-tenth of an inch. The least amount, only a few hundredths, occurred near the Pocahontas County border. The greatest amount, a little less than two-tenths of an inch, occurred near the Monroe County border.

The wider storm

Light freezing rain occurred within a scenario where cold air damming was taking place across the area, all while relatively warmer moisture aloft in association with a coastal low was progressing across the region. The result was a light rain that froze upon contact and produced ice accretion mainly between a trace and one-tenth of an inch. Much of the ice accretion was focused along the border with Virginia.
