[W8MWA] Advisory: Skywarn Activation

[Jeffrey Fritz]

*The North Central West Virginia Skywarn Net was activated on the W8MWA
repeater  at 06:00 EST. Please call in and share your snowfall
totals.Throughout the morning we will operate on an hourly basis. I will
look for your snowfall reports at the top of every hour. Reports will be
accepted at other times as well.*

Early snowfall reports via the North Central West Virginia Skywarm Net and
the NWS Pittsburgh indicated a general 3" of snowfall generally and in Mon
and Preston Counties. The concern is the warmer air that is already in
southern West Virginia. It arrives later today and will change the snow to
a mixture of rain, sleet and ice.

Widespread power outages, and impacts to travel and infrastructure are
expected due to snow and ice accumulations.  Frigid temperatures and bitter
wind chills that set in behind this storm are expected to linger through
much of the work week. This prolonged period of cold will be especially
impactful for those who find themselves without power in the wake of the
weekend storm.
