Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeA storm system moved from the Tennessee Valley on Wednesday (January 7) and Thursday (January 8) into New England thereafter. A cold front across New England and New York associated with an Arctic High Pressure system across Canada resulted in a flow of low level cold air into Vermont. Warm moist air riding over this low level cold air resulted in icing across the area. Most of the icing occured between the 1500 and 2500 foot level with less than 1/2 inch ice thickness. The ice accumulations resulted in damage to many trees, with power lines snapped due to the weight of the ice resulting in many brief power outages. Automobile travel was negatively impacted with numerous accidents reported.
