episode_narrativeThe continuation of a strong upper-level jet streak, combined with additional mid-level dynamics, generated surface low pressure over central Georgia by evening on the 2nd. As the low moved to near Cape Hatteras overnight, a broad area of heavy snow overspread eastern West Virginia for a short period during the late evening and early morning hours of the 2nd/3rd. Accumulations ranged from 4 to 7 inches, with some higher elevations reporting as much as 10 inches.The storm ushered in the coldest temperatures in two years. High temperatures on the 4th ranged from 8 to 15 degrees above zero, with wind chills 15 to 25 below zero. By dawn on the 5th, light winds and a moderate snow pack allowed temperatures to fall to as low as 15 to 20 below in sheltered valley locations.
