Southwest winds on the east side of an advancing area of low pressure brought warm and moist air across the region the night of November 14th into the morning of November 15th. This warm and moist air resulted in rain falling across the area, but falling through a shallow layer of below freezing air just above and at ground level, and onto surfaces also below freezing. The result was a freezing rain event that deposited a range of one-quarter to three-quarters inch of ice on trees, power lines, and roads. At one point, at least 34,000 customers were without power.
