Winter Weather Hits West Virginia
WEST VIRGINIA....
At least 40 wrecks were reported in the Kanawha Valley Saturday while much of the area was buried under three to four inches of snow and in some places a thin slick layer of black ice. It was the first significant snowfall of the season. Some flights at Yeager Airport were diverted to Columbus and Pittsburgh because of the winter weather on Saturday afternoon. A U.S. Airways flight from Charlotte was diverted to Columbus while a flight arriving from Atlanta had to be sent to Pittsburgh. Flights began landing again around 5:00 P.M.
