The wider storm
A low pressure system tracked eastward along the Gulf Coast and spread moisture northward toward the Mid Atlantic. Meanwhile, high pressure to the north allowed temperatures to fall into the 20s, which caused the moisture to mostly fall as heavy snow. Some freezing drizzle also fell during this storm. The snow caused several minor traffic accidents. Average snowfall accumulations ranged from ten to twenty inches over southeast West Virginia.
