Chris temperatures will go through the floor as we head into saturday and sunday and tomorrow, we will have more chances for Winter Weather. Lets break it down. Three things we are concerned about. One, the light accumulation of snow, then the intense cold for the weekend. No way out of that one. And then this storm system is far out, four or five days, but it looks like a mixture that will turn over to mainly just rain. Look at that shot though at north hill. Temperatures started out at 19 at rdu and 14 at southern pines. We got into the upper 30s and low 40s. At 48 right now at north hills rdu international.

Roxboro, our snow capital of central North Carolina probably getting little to nothing out of it. Meanwhile, to the south, there will be a wintry mix that may be a bit of a glaze.

Mainly snow. As we get into the triangle, we may have a dusting, a quarter of an inch. Western areas mays the little to you could see a light glaze. Not going to cause power outages, but there may be slippery spots on elevated services. Elevated surfaces. There is a winter storm warning near the coast. They could pick up three, maybe four inches of snow there, when usually it is the other way around. The further inland to go, the heavier snow. Precipitation mainly to the northeast of the triangle triangle by friday afternoon. There is the culprit. A weak area of low pressure off the coast. It moves out, opens the floodgates for the arctic air. It will come barreling in. Look at this, as we head through the day saturday,s latterday morning could be in the ingle digit, and the afternoon, staying in the teens for the wind chill. Seriously and do not forget your pets. Breezy saturday. Sunday, a low of 14. We talked about monday. A wintry mix that probably will change over to rain pretty quickly and then we have the 50s by wednesday.
