FIRST DAY OF WINTER WILL SEE MOUNTAIN SNOW

(12/21/2018)
It's the first day of winter, and shortest day for sunlight.

A half-foot of snow is possible in a handful of West Virginia's mountain counties Friday night into Saturday when cold air from the west collides with moisture that's been soaking the state since Thursday.

Lower elevations could see a skiff of snow Friday night.

Soaking rain was covering many counties Friday.

The flood watches were posted in the eastern mountains and the eastern panhandle.

Chance of snow on Christmas Day is slim.
