Charleston, WV – A Winter Weather Advisory remains in effect for Southeast Randolph County from 9 a.m. Wednesday to 7 a.m. Thursday, with freezing rain and ice accumulations expected.

Roads, especially bridges and overpasses, are expected to become slick and hazardous, increasing the risk of accidents. Power outages and tree damage are also likely due to ice buildup.
