Charlotte Braces for Possible Heavy Snow This Weekend, NWS Warns

Forecasters say accumulating snow is likely Friday night through Saturday night for the Charlotte area, with a 70% chance Friday evening rising to 90% by Saturday morning and about 70% again Saturday night; Mecklenburg and surrounding counties could see around two inches, with a real chance of more than four inches in some spots, depending on the storm track. Temperatures will plunge into the 20s with wind chills near 0, and travel could become dangerous as Arctic air lingers into Sunday night and Monday morning. The amount and location of the heaviest snow remain uncertain as forecasters watch the storm’s track.
