| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A fast-moving upper level disturbance dropped a quick 1 to 3 inches of snow, followed by a brief period of freezing rain and drizzle, causing numerous slippery roads during the early morning commute on the 14th. Highest average snow totals were along the northern Blue Ridge. Isolated locations above 2000 feet received up to 5 inches. The ice accretion was 1/8 inch or less; no damage to trees or powerl lines was reported. Traffic accidents were reduced since many school districts were closed and other residents took the day (a Valentine's Day Friday) off. |
