Anything wet will be frozen solid by midnight, as temperatures drop to the low single digits by tomorrow morning.
The following is a timeline of what to expect:
TONIGHT: Clear as a bell, with temperatures in the single digits and a calm wind.
Friday: A red sky at dawn, with clouds lowering and thickening. The first flurries will appear between 2-4 p.m., with heavy snow falling between 5:30-7 p.m.
The snow will then likely taper off for a while, followed by a light freezing drizzle between 3 and 5 a.m. Saturday. This freezing drizzle will only add a very thin layer of ice to the snow (not like what we saw last Sunday), but driving will be treacherous regardless of ice accumulation on the road.
SATURDAY after daybreak: Snow showers resume west of the Greenbrier Valley from 5-7 a.m. and end in the evening. Expect snow to fall for 20 minutes, followed by 20 minutes of dry weather, and the cycle will repeat. There will also be a few peaks of sun.
Snow totals:
Greenbrier Valley: 2.5″
Route 19 and I-77 corridor: 4-6″
Western Greenbrier County, eastern Nicholas and western Pocahontas: 7-8″
Sunday will be mostly sunny and milder with main thoroughfares in good shape.
The next Arctic front arrives Monday evening and bring more snow and slippery travel through midweek.
