CHARLOTTE, NC — After a wet and warm winter, the Charlotte metro region will finally see snow today, according to forecasters. But how much?
A winter weather advisory is in effect for the greater Charlotte metro region from 10 a.m. Thursday until midnight, according to the National Weather Service.
According to government weather forecasters, our area is expected to get one to two inches of snow accumulation, although amounts will likely vary throughout the region. Charlotte is expected to see an inch or less, however, northern areas of the region, such as Iredell and Rowan counties, could see 2 inches or more.
Eastern North Carolina will see much more, with up to 4 to 6 inches of snow accumulation, NWS said.
Road conditions are expected to deteriorate throughout the day, NWS said. "Roads will initially be warm and wet, but with slippery conditions developing as temperatures fall through the day. The hazardous conditions could impact the evening commute."
By Friday morning, road conditions are expected to be treacherous, as overnight temperatures are expected to dip into the 20s, leading to black ice, it said.
