Highs today will be much colder than the mid-60s that we saw yesterday. We’ll top out in the lower to mid-50s as the cold air associated with the area of low pressure that is giving us the precipitation begins to invade the region.<figure><img src="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?type=thumbnail_580x000&amp;url=3CGSqg_1H0x5Byq00" alt="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=3CGSqg_1H0x5Byq00" width="1280" height="720" ></figure>Tonight, the rain will begin to change over to snow, especially in the high elevation areas. Lows will be around the freezing mark, with colder temperatures (hence the chance for the changeover) in the mountains.Tomorrow, we’ll continue to see a chance for rain and snow as the low-pressure center continues to throw waves of precipitation at the region.Highs will be in the lower 40s in some areas and upper 30s in others. Some areas that see snow in the morning will see it change back over to rain in the afternoon and back to snow later tomorrow night, as lows drop into the upper 20s. Such is the nature of fall storms in our area. The cold air really puts its icy grip on the area on Saturday, with highs in the mid-30s in most areas. That means almost everyone who sees precipitation sees snow. The chance for snow lasts into Sunday in the northeastern areas, but the chances are small. Other areas will see a mix of sun and clouds.<figure><img src="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?type=thumbnail_580x000&amp;url=2E52D1_1H0x5Byq00" alt="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=2E52D1_1H0x5Byq00" width="1280" height="720" ></figure>Our forecast for snow accumulations with this storm hasn’t changed much from the initial outlook that we released yesterday. We stretched the 1-3″ area a bit west into Raleigh County and removed the 1-3″ in the southern coalfields. Isolated areas there could still pick up more than 1″, however. Elsewhere, anything from a dusting to around 1″ is expected, with again some areas picking up a bit more, and some areas not seeing any accumulation at all. Our reasoning behind the forecast remains the same: 1) the timing of the changeover from rain to a mix to snow and, in some areas, back to rain, 2) the soil and surface temperatures leading to some of the initial snow melting on contact, 3) the snow being enhanced by upsloping provided by the elevation changes, and 4) the duration of the event, with the chance for snow on Sunday in Pocahontas, western Greenbrier and eastern Nicholas counties leading to possibly higher totals there.<figure><img src="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?type=thumbnail_580x000&amp;url=45mZxM_1H0x5Byq00" alt="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=45mZxM_1H0x5Byq00" width="1280" height="720" ></figure>After the storm is gone, temperatures gradually rise into the mid-50s by next Wednesday. Lows will be more consistent; most days will see mid-to-upper-20s.<figure><img src="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?type=thumbnail_580x000&amp;url=4Ouq7f_1H0x5Byq00" alt="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=4Ouq7f_1H0x5Byq00" width="1280" height="720" ></figure>Click below for a video version of the forecast…https://youtu.be/xZs5HNL3A9o</div></body>
