3 AM SUNDAY - Ice was covering roads, trees and lines in Calhoun County starting at midnight. Tree limbs and some lines were down at this hour.
Road conditions EXTREMELY HAZARDOUS.
"This is by far, by far, the biggest of the season and potentially very much more hazardous," said John Victory, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Charleston.
A mixture of winter weather has developed across the region this evening. Freezing rain along with some sleet and snow are
making travel difficult. Ice accumulations of a quarter to a half inch are possible before changing over to sleet and snow
during the overnight hours. While snow accumulations will be light overnight... 1 to 3 inches... the amounts will increase on
Sunday with total accumulations reaching 3 to 7 inches by nightfall.
Call to action --- a Winter Storm Warning for heavy snow is issued when significant amounts of snow are forecast. Snowfall
intensities will be heavy enough to substantially reduce visibility at times. Roads will become hazardous... and travel is not
recommended.
