Cloudy, freezing rain, rain morning, mixed with a touch of sleet. Some snow, sleet as you went north in to PA. Just rain in Wv. Large temp contrast.

Comparing the high sheltered Valley vs the higher Ridgeline just west. Temps began to rise across the higher ground as the lower areas held the chill until post midnight as the winds picked up to push out the low laying cooler air.

Lots of clouds with some sunny intervals. There were showers, pockets of snow, graupel, soft hail, rain, thunder n lightning, windy, mixed with sunny intervals. Likely some pockets of freezing rain early up High. Overall though no precip amount to much in its quick passing .
