| episode_narrative | A Nor'easter moved from the North Carolina Coast to New England from the 20th to the 22nd. As it passed by the Mid Atlantic region, it dropped heavy precipitation between midnight and mid afternoon on the 21st. Across Berkeley, Jefferson, Hampshire, and Hardy Counties, the precipitation fell mainly in the form of rain and ranged from 0.75 inches to 2.00 inches. In Hampshire County, heavy rainfall temporarily flooded Kemp Road near Augusta. In Berkeley County, heavy rainfall from across the region ran off into creeks and rivers, causing minor flooding. On the 22nd, Opequon Creek near Martinsburg reached its flood stage of 10 feet at 4:45 AM. The creek crested at 10.58 feet at 8:30 AM then fell below flood stage at 12:15 PM. In Morgan County, a rain/snow mix was reported. Capon State Park reported 2.7 inches of snow accumulation. Across the higher terrain of Mineral, Grant, and Pendleton Counties, the precipitation fell as mainly snow. Snow accumulations varied greatly from the mountain ridges in the western portion of the counties to the valleys across the east. Along the Allegany Front, between 6 and 14 inches of snow accumulated. East of the ridges, snowfall totals ranged from 2 to 6 inches. After the precipitation ended on the 21st, northwest winds increased to between 25 and 45 MPH. A wind gust of 43 MPH was recorded at the Martinsburg Airport. In Martinsburg, the high winds were blamed for tipping a rooftop television tower onto a power line. Contact between the tower and the power line resulted in sparks which set the house ablaze and caused extensive damage. |
