 .DISCUSSION...
 A winter storm passing to our south will bring 3 to 5 inches of snow 
 to southern West Virginia and southwest Virginia today and tonight. 
 This will make the roads very slippery and travel will be difficult. 
 Farther north, only a few light snow showers or flurries are 
 expected with little or no accumulations. Temperatures will stay 
 well below freezing, and wind chills will be frigid through Sunday 
 morning. If you must go outside, wear several layers of warm 
 clothing and make sure your pets have a warm place to stay. A slow 
 warm-up is expected to start on Monday.
