CLARKSBURG, W.Va. (WBOY) — Another snowstorm is expected to hit the Mid-Atlantic region on Wednesday, bringing up to 8 inches of snow to parts of West Virginia.
Although the whole state is expected to get some snow, the National Weather Service (NWS) predicts that the bulk of the snowfall will be in the southern half of the state and the higher-elevation mountains. Mingo and Logan counties up to the southern parts of Randolph and Upshur counties could get 6-8 inches of snow. Elkins is expected to get about 4 inches.
The rest of north central West Virginia is expected to get less than that. The NWS predicts 2 inches in Morgantown and only about an inch in Clarksburg.

What is an Extreme Heat Warning and when is it issued in Pennsylvania?

(WHTM) — Much of the Midstate is under an Extreme Heat Warning, a first for the region. Sort of. The National Weather Service at State College issued two separate Extreme Heat Warnings covering most of our area — one for Mifflin and Juniata counties, and another for Franklin, Perry, Dauphin, Lebanon, Cumberland, Adams, York, and Lancaster counties. What is a heat dome? Here's what forecasters are talking about The former is in effect from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday, and the latter is until 8 p.m. Wednesday with heat index values up to 108°F predicted It's not the first time we've reached such temperatures, but it is a new term for the warning. Why? It's part of what the NWS calls 'hazard simplification' which saw two alerts renamed nationwide in March. WEATHER FORECAST > A hazy, hot, and humid week ahead Effectively, if these conditions existed this time last year, we would be under an 'Excessive Heat Warning.' The change of wording from 'Excessive' to 'Extreme,' the National Weather Service says, is part of an effort to 'better convey that heat is dangerous' and improve communication and messaging. For an Extreme Heat Warning to be issued in all of Pennsylvania outside of metro Philadelphia, heat indexes must exceed 105°F. Metro Philadelphia uses 'Kalkstein Procedures.' A Heat Advisory, which Mifflin and Juniata counties will be under until 8 p.m. Wednesday outside of when the Extreme Heat Warning is active, requires heat indices between 100°F and 105°F.

Three people killed in New York after severe thunderstorms with flash flood emergency issued: ‘Seek higher ground now!'

ONEIDA COUNTY, N.Y. – Severe thunderstorms contributed to three deaths in central New York and dumped up to 5 inches of rain on Sunday, prompting a rare Flash Flood Emergency as floodwaters covered roads and entered homes. Storm reports from the National Weather Service office in Binghamton, New York, show Oneida County's emergency manager reported three deaths after severe storms knocked down multiple trees onto at least two separate structures near Clark Mills, New York, just before 4 a.m. ET on Sunday. FOX Weather has reached out to Oneida County officials to independently confirm these storm-related fatalities. Oneida County officials said thunderstorms left more than 30,000 without power and caused significant damage in the towns of Kirkland, Lee, Westmoreland and Trenton. National Grid crews are working to restore power. 'We are doing everything we can to respond quickly and safely to the damage left by these storms,' Oneida County Executive Anthony J. Picente, Jr., said in a statement. 'Our emergency teams are on the ground clearing roadways, coordinating with utility crews and assessing the needs of affected communities. I urge everyone to stay alert, avoid downed power lines and give our crews the space they need to do their work.' The same storm system brought a deluge of rain to central New York throughout Sunday morning. 4 A flooded street in the village of Canastota, N.Y. on June 22, 2025.
