Overview

A weak cold front stalled south and east of the region the morning of Jan 6th. This front combined with upper level energy digging south from the Great Lakes region resulting in low pressure tracking across the southern Appalachians into the mid-Atlantic Thursday afternoon Jan 6th into the early morning of Jan 7th. The track of this low and colder air allowed for accumulating snow across the mountains, especially in West Virginia.
