A light glaze of icing was reported at Champion.

The wider storm

Strong moisture advection combined with crossing low pressure to produce precipitation on January 1st. Subfreezing temperatures during the morning were slow to warm during the day, creating a period of freezing rain across the region. This freezing rain lasted the longest along east-facing slopes east of Pittsburgh, where upslope flow ahead of the advancing low allowed subfreezing temperatures to linger longer.
