Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeAn arctic airmass took residence over the region behind a strong winter storm January 6th and 7th. West winds between 20 and 30 mph, occasionally gusting to 40 mph, created dangerous wind chill values between 30 and 45 degrees below zero. These strong winds also created significant blowing and drifting snow with roads impassable at times.
Event narrativeevent_narrativeTemperatures dropped into the single digits and teens below zero as arctic air filtered in behind a powerful winter storm that dropped more than a foot of heavy snow on the region. Strong westerly winds, with gusts between 30 and 40 mph, created deadly wind chills and significant blowing and drifting snow. Dangerous winds chills between 30 and 45 degrees below zero were common. The extremely cold temperatures and significant blowing snow kept many north-south roads impassable or restricted to single lanes. There were numerous reports of accidents and slide-offs across the region due to the slick roadways, with many businesses and schools closed each day.
