 .DISCUSSION...
 Another winter weather advisory has been issued for tonight for the 
 northern mountains, as a shortwave is anticipated to cross the area. 
 This will create a light wintry mix of precipitation including snow 
 and freezing rain, and will lead to continued slick travel in these 
 areas.
 
 Outside of the northern mountains, drier weather is anticipated 
 tonight, although a few light snow showers cannot be ruled out 
 across northern and central parts of the state of West Virginia. Low 
 temperatures across the area tonight will generally range from the 
 teens to the 20s. 
 
 A system will then pass by to our south Friday night into Saturday. 
 This looks to spread precipitation back 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.
 
 The remainder of the weekend into early next week is trending drier 
 and warmer.
