"Ice and Sunshine: Wintry Mix and Clearing Skies Across the Carolinas"

A weather system is expected to bring a wintry mix to the North Carolina Foothills overnight, with a winter weather advisory in effect for several counties. Meteorologist John Ahrens suggests staying indoors rather than preparing for a major event. Conditions will improve quickly with the wintry mix turning to rain after 8 a.m. and the storm moving out later on Saturday, leading to a calm Sunday. Residents are encouraged to download the WSOC-TV weather app for updates and follow the Severe Weather Center 9 team on Twitter for the latest forecasts.
