Strong warm air advection in the Ohio Valley helped snow to develop just before dawn in the Ohio River counties. The snow spread quickly east.  Lulls in the snowfall developed during the midday.  A strong cold front and its associated mid level disturbance helped trigger more showery snow during the early evening.  Lightning and thunder was even observed, causing white out conditions for about 30 minutes.
Snow totals of 4 to 7 inches fell across Roane and Braxton Counties, where the convection bands trained a bit longer.  Meanwhile, snow accumulations of 2 to 4 inches were more common in southern West Virginia, with 3 to 5 inches across the northern lowlands and the central mountain counties.
