 .DISCUSSION...
 A weak disturbance crossing the area will bring a light wintry mix 
 of snow and freezing rain to the northern mountains, and will lead 
 to continued slick travel in these areas.
 
 Outside of these northern mountains, drier weather is anticipated 
 tonight, although a few light snow showers are possible across 
 northern and central parts of West Virginia. Low temperatures across 
 the area tonight will generally range from the teens to the 20s. 
 
 A system passes by to our south Friday night into Saturday, 
 spreading light precipitation into southern and eastern areas. Most 
 of this precipitation should be in the form of rain, but a brief 
 period of freezing rain cannot be ruled out in any areas that stay 
 stuck below freezing..
 
 Sunday will be dry but staying chilly, with warmer weather returning 
 for Monday.
