An area of low pressure, in the Ohio Valley, developed along a strong stationary boundary on January 31. The storm then tracked northeast through the Saint Lawrence Valley by the end of the day and month.  With cold shallow air in place over Southern Vermont, and warm moist air being forced over the cold dome, the stage was set for a potpourri of wintry precipitation.  Snow and sleet  developed across Southern Vermont during the morning  hours of the 31st.  The combination of snow and sleet, followed by freezing rain, produced over half an inch of water equivalent.   The accumulation of snow and sleet ranged between  1 and 5 inches. A light coating of  icing  accumulated on top of that, making for extremely hazardous travel and diffiiculty in removing the frozen/freezing precipitation.
