What happened

The episode as NWS RLX wrote it up.

A strong cold front and upper level disturbance crossed the middle Ohio River Valley from the 15th into the morning of the 16th. Light snow moved into Perry and Morgan Counties during the late afternoon of the 15th, while counties along the Ohio River generally started seeing snow around midnight. A fairly widespread 1 to 3 inches of snow fell, with the higher amounts along the Ohio River. The emergency manager for Lawrence County, measured 3 inches of snow in Ironton. Three inches were also measured by the Highway Department in Meigs County, with about 2.5 inches measured by the Jackson County Highway Department and the cooperative observer near Gallipolis in Gallia County. Many CoCoRaHS and cooperative observers measured 1 to 2 inches across Athens, Morgan, Perry, Vinton and Washington Counties.

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Charleston WV
301 PM EST Mon Jan 15 2018

.SYNOPSIS...
A cold front passes through the region tonight through Tuesday.
Arctic air mid week. Turning milder for the end of the week, as
the arctic high exits.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TUESDAY/...
As of 130 PM Monday...

Low pressure passes north of the area tonight and into the
Great Lakes and continues Northeastward during the day on
Tuesday. The trailing cold front with this low slowly moves
through the area tonight and during the day tomorrow, bringing a
band of snow with it. With a positive tilted upper trof
movement of the front will be relatively slow to push through.
Model QPF equates to about 1 to 3 inches across the Western
lowlands of SE OH, NE KY, Western WV and SW VA. Slightly high
amounts of 2 to 4 in the higher elevations of the Eastern
mountains of WV. Current advisories look good for the area.
Starting in the west and continuing an eastward progression
through the night tonight.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
As of 230 PM Monday...

High pressure builds at the surface from the West through the
period, gradually drying us out as the upper level trough and
cold front slowly move out to the East. Still have
upslope/frontal snow along the WV and SW VA mountains with low-
level moisture and NW flow - and some enhancement early
Wednesday along the highest peaks of WV with a subtle mid-level
wave advecting through the trough. Though, low- level winds
turn more westerly and cut off any upslope influence by daybreak
Wednesday. Gusty winds and continued cold air advection aloft
produce wind chills dipping into single digits and negative
single digits Wednesday morning. Temperatures steadily climb
through the end of the period under warm air advection and broad
ridging aloft.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
As of 245 PM Monday...

Warm air advection continues under ridging/SW flow, bringing in
pleasantly warm temperatures through the end of the weekend
ahead of the next system, whose high-level clouds start
streaming in Saturday. A deepening upper level trough over the
western US sets the stage for classic lee-side cyclogenesis,
shown in all long-range operational models. Though have had to
slosh PoPs somewhat due to uncertain timing, there seems to be
good indication of warm-overriding rain showers Saturday night
into Sunday ahead of a strong cold front with rainfall Sunday
night into Monday.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
As of 1020 AM Monday...

Quick update to adjust cloud and -SHSN coverage in TAFs.
Otherwise current forecast looks on track.

As of 135 PM Monday...

VFR conditions will prevail over the region the rest of the
afternoon hours. With the possibility of some brief MVFR at PKB
late this afternoon in snow showers from a PKB to HTS line. A
cold front is expected to push through the region tonight and
Tuesday. Southerly winds out ahead of this front will switch to
the WNW behind the front. Some gusts to 15-20kts are possible
near the front. MVFR to IFR conditions will progress from west
to east this afternoon and overnight in cigs and vsbys in snow
showers, and continue through the day on Tuesday as the front
pushes through.

FORECAST CONFIDENCE AND ALTERNATE SCENARIOS THROUGH 18Z TUESDAY...

FORECAST CONFIDENCE: Medium to High

ALTERNATE SCENARIOS: Timing of MVFR to IFR in snow may vary late

Minor ice jamming issues can be expected along the Muskingum River
over the next several hours. While significant flooding is not
expected at this time, people are urged to stay away from river
banks due to the possibility of unexpected sharp rises in the river
level, and to continue to monitor the situation.
