    •November 1, 2012

Hurricane Sandy mixed with colder temperatures in higher elevations and dumped as much as three feet of snow in some places. (Photo by Jeff Swensen/Getty Images)
    • A lone parked car is draped with snow covered branches south of Morgantown, W.Va. from a snowfall on Tuesday, Oct. 30, 2012. West Virginia's death toll climbed to at least six and hundreds of thousands remained without power Wednesday, Oct. 31, from the wet, heavy snow that superstorm Sandy dumped on the mountains, snapping trees, pulling down power lines and collapsing homes.

    • A car drives on a road in Beaver, W.Va., Wednesday, Oct. 31, 2012. Superstorm Sandy has already dumped up to 2 feet of snow in West Virginia, cutting electricity to about 271,00 customers and closing dozens of roads. (AP Photo/The Register-Herald, Rick Barbero)
    • An ambulance is stuck in over a foot of snow off of Highway 33 West, near Belington, W.Va. on Tuesday, Oct. 30, 2012, in Belington, W.Va. Superstorm Sandy buried parts of West Virginia under more than a foot of snow on Tuesday, cutting power to at least 264,000 customers and closing dozens of roads. At least one death was reported. The storm not only hit higher elevations hard as predicted, communities in lower elevations got much more than the dusting of snow forecasters had first thought from a dangerous system that also brought significant rainfall, high wind gusts and small-stream flooding.
