Doddridge, WV Fire Weather Outlook

 .DISCUSSION...
 Arctic high pressure will maintain frigid weather to finish the 
 weekend, low temperatures this morning and Monday morning in the 
 single digits either side of zero. High temperatures today will only 
 be slightly higher than on Saturday.
 
 Furthermore, a flat clipper system is likely to bring a band of 
 light snow from the Huntington tri-state area down along the Tug 
 Fork and the southern coalfields of West Virginia this morning. While 
 light, with the very low temperatures, any snow accumulation at all 
 will affect roadways, possibly even where treated, creating slick 
 conditions.
 
 A significant warm-up is forecast for early next week. A cold front 
 could bring rain showers Tuesday night into early Wednesday, 
 followed by slightly below normal temperatures and dry weather 
 through Thursday, although these temperatures will still be a 
 significant departure from the well-below normal temperatures of the 
 past three weeks.
 
 Systems could then bring rain and snow later in the week, as 
 temperatures return to near normal.
 
 This weather pattern should promote an orderly melt of the snowpack 
 through the week.
