A cold front dropping down from the north collided with a low pressure system moving in from the Gulf of Mexico during the early morning hours of March 12th. Very cold temperatures took hold over the area with heavy snow initially developing after midnight. Significant bursts of snow just before dawn led to 5 to 8 inches across the lowlands with an additional few inches around sunrise. This resulted in multiple vehicle accidents and hazardous travel conditions that morning across Central West Virginia, where the highest accumulations fell. 2 to 5 inches of snow fell along the mountains
The bulk of the snow shifted to the east throughout the morning as the upper level disturbance aimed for the Atlantic Ocean. Lingering lake enhanced snow showers continued into the afternoon, producing bursts of additional snow for portions of the area.
