A cold front is moving through southern West Virginia, bringing showers and the potential for snow, rain, and freezing drizzle. While any accumulation is expected to be light, a Winter Weather Advisory has been issued for parts of the region. Temperatures will cool down on Tuesday before rising again by the weekend, when another system is expected to bring more precipitation.

Why it matters

The changing weather conditions can impact travel and outdoor activities in the region, so it's important for residents to stay informed about the forecast and any potential hazardous weather.

The details

The cold front moving through the area is producing showers, some of which may be heavy at times. While the chance of lightning is small, there is a risk of the precipitation changing over to snow or a rain/snow mix, as well as the possibility of freezing drizzle. The National Weather Service has issued a Winter Weather Advisory for northwestern Pocahontas County due to the freezing drizzle threat.

• Showers are expected this evening as the cold front moves through the region.
• On Tuesday, the front will exit and temperatures will cool, with highs in the middle to upper 30s and the potential for early rain and snow, primarily in the higher elevations.
• By the weekend, another system is expected to move in from the west and southwest, bringing the potential for more rain and snow.

The weather will continue to be monitored throughout the week, and any updates or changes to the forecast will be provided as they become available.
