| Episode Narrative | An area of low pressure moved from the Mississippi coast to off the Carolina coast. At the same time another low moved through the Ohio Valley, putting southwest Virginia in the middle of the two. An area of mixed precipitation moved across the area with light to moderate accumulations. The coastal low deepened on Wednesday bringing strong damaging winds and significant upslope snow showers to the higher elevations of southwest Virginia. |
| Event Narrative | Strong northwest winds behind a strengthening coastal low caused power outages due to a tree down on power lines on Highway 24 east of Vinton. A measured wind gust of 63 mph was also recorded in Stewartsville, and a tree was blown down on a car on Route 24 in Chamblissburg. At one point around 1400 customers were without power. |
