Coldest Night Of The Season So Far Then More Snow

Anything wet will be frozen solid by midnight as temperatures drop into the lower single digits by tomorrow morning.

Below is the timeline of what to expect:

TONIGHT: Clear as a bell with temperatures dropping into the single digits and a calm wind.

FRIDAY: A red sky at daybreak, with clouds lowering and thickening. The first flurries will be spotted between 2-4 p.m., with heavy snow developing between 5:30-7 p.m. Then, the snow will likely taper off for a bit and we will see a little bit of freezing drizzle between 3 a.m. and 5 a.m. Saturday. This freezing drizzle will be just enough to add a very thin layer of ice on the snow (nothing like what we saw last Sunday), but driving will be treacherous regardless of ice accretion on the road.

SATURDAY after daybreak: Between 5-7 a.m., snow showers resume west of the Greenbrier Valley and end in the evening. Expect snow to fall for 20 minutes and then dry weather resumes for 20 minutes and the cycle repeats itself. A few peaks of sun will be mixed in there, too.

Snow totals:

Greenbrier Valley: 2.5″

Route 19 and I-77 corridor: 4-6″

Western Greenbrier County, eastern Nicholas and western Pocahontas: 7-8″

Sunday will be mostly sunny and milder with main thoroughfares in good shape.

The next Arctic front arrives Monday evening and bring more snow and slippery travel through midweek.
