    Areas affected...western North Carolina and southwest Virginia

    Concerning...Freezing rain=20

    Valid 252027Z - 252330Z

    SUMMARY...Mostly freezing rain with some sleet expected this
    afternoon into the early evening.

    DISCUSSION...Temperatures remain in the upper teens to low 20s in
    the lee of the Appalachians this afternoon in the well-established
    wedge front. Some modification of this airmass has occurred and
    thus, forecast soundings appear more favorable for freezing rain
    than sleet this afternoon into this evening. Therefore, expect some
    additional ice accumulation over the next 3 to 4 hours as a
    stratiform precipitation shield expands across western North
    Carolina and southwest Virginia. Ice accretion rates of 0.1 inch per
    hour are likely where freezing rain falls.
