 .DISCUSSION...
 A major winter storm will continue to impact the region through 
 tonight, bringing a dangerous mix of heavy snow and ice. Areas 
 across northern West Virginia and southeast Ohio will see the 
 heaviest snow, while significant ice is expected across the 
 Charleston and Huntington areas and points south. Travel will be 
 extremely difficult to impossible in many areas, and power outages 
 are likely where ice builds up on trees and lines.
 
 Behind this storm, a blast of arctic air will arrive on Monday. 
 Temperatures will drop into the single digits, and wind chills will 
 fall to dangerously cold levels Monday night and Tuesday morning. 
 This freezing weather will last all week, and temperatures are not 
 expected to rise above freezing through next weekend. Please check 
 on neighbors and make sure your pipes are protected.
