...SCATTERED ACCUMULATING SNOW SHOWERS AND ICY ROADS EXPECTED
THROUGH THIS EVENING...

Scattered snow showers will continue this evening in the North
Carolina mountain counties that aren't in the Winter Storm Warning
or Advisory. The snow showers will also fall in Rabun County
Georgia. Most locations that receive these snow showers will see
from a dusting to around an inch of accumulation. However,
isolated locations could pick up a quick 1 to 2 inches. The most
likely areas to see significant snow accumulations outside of the
Advisory and Warning areas will be across northern Buncombe
County, including the Weaverville area, and across the high
elevations of northern Macon and northern Jackson Counties in
North Carolina, and northern and western portions of Rabun County,
Georgia. With cold temperatures in place across these areas, icy
patches will develop where snow accumulates or enough water
lingers on the roads to freeze.

Additionally, isolated to scattered snow showers could develop
outside the mountains this evening...mainly along the I-40
corridor in North Carolina, where some locations could receive a
dusting of snow.

If traveling across the area tonight, be prepared for sudden
deterioration in driving conditions. Slow down and allow for
plenty of space between yourself and other vehicles if snow
covered or icy roads are encountered.
