Period of moderate snow early, then lighter, but mainly on most of the day. Late afternoon it mixed with freezing drizzle at times. Despite low precip rates, snow accumulated .4″ today. Heavy cloud cover limiting solar radiation and from 10am on temps holding 20s allowed for that. Further south in Canaan, snow appeared lighter. Further south, Snowshoe and through Pocahontas, Greenbrier it ramped up much higher.
