Weekend Snow

Our forecast tonight remains dry but breezy. Temperatures in the low teens along with strong winds will make it feel like single digits outside tonight and tomorrow morning. Friday look for mostly cloudy skies with a high around 26. That weather system currently trodding through Oklahoma will gradually begin to produce snow showers well after sunset Friday night/Saturday. The track of this storm which has been the topic of much discussion in the weather community will stay well to our south. Northern and western portions of West Virginia will escape with 1-3” of snow accumulation through Saturday. Heavier snowfall is expected in southeastern portions of the state. Southernmost portions of WV may see up to 8” through Saturday. Overnight lows through the weekend will remain in the low to mid teens with daytime temps cresting in the mid to upper 20s. Skies will begin to clear again Saturday evening. Sunday and Monday will be mostly sunny and dry with temps still hanging around the mid teens and 20s. Rain/snow mix on tap for Tuesday as we finally begin to warm up a bit.
