What the long range models are really saying about Christmas Day weather in North Carolina... The GFS seems to want to give us a few showers and mild (normal) temperatures. The EURO is leaning toward a warm and dry Christmas. We'll see how they play out in the coming days. #SpectrumNews1 #ncwx

I was kind of amazed at the number of posts saying the snowflakes we saw on Friday were a surprise...
Folks, they were being talked about last Wednesday.
Not paying attention to the forecast, doesn't make it wrong.
It just means you weren't listening. #ncwx

Two words of advice with the very cold air moving in got tonight and Monday... Cover those outside water faucets and close the foundation vents near them. Might save you some frozen pipes. #SpectrumNews1 #ncwx #Cold
