March weather forecast
West Virginia, USA

March signals the advent of spring in West Virginia, marking a noticeable shift from the chillier winter months. Average temperatures typically range from 25°F (-3.9°C) to 40°F (4.4°C), reflecting a steady yet moderate climb on the thermometer. While the eastern highlands and areas like Snowshoe start to experience diminishing snowfall, they still occasionally witness snowflakes, given their elevated terrains. The city of Elkins, by contrast, begins to shed its thick winter blanket, making way for clearer paths and budding flora.

Compared to February, March experiences a tangible rise in temperatures, indicating a retreat of winter's grip. The persistent cloud cover from the preceding months starts to wane, allowing for more frequent sunlit days. While the fog of January and February starts to dissipate, sporadic foggy mornings can still be witnessed, especially in the valleys.

As March progresses, the anticipation grows stronger for the full bloom of spring and the warmer embrace of April.
