Will NC get a snowy winter? Here's what one state forecast says

The question isn’t whether this year’s winter will have an El Niño pattern. It’s a matter of whether it will be the strongest on record. “The consequences for North Carolina are plentiful, with a pattern change in the cards that could ease our long-running drought, but that could also see more frequent flooding, erosion and coastal overwash ,” according to the North Carolina Climate Office’s winter outlook. A record El Niño puts North Carolina “in uncharted waters,” but it’s likely the state will see more rain and precipitation, with some of the past strongest El Niños producing some of North Carolina’s wettest winters. But that doesn’t necessarily mean snow. “For one, thanks to broader warming trends in our climate, consistently cool weather has been hard to come by in recent years,” according to the Climate Office’s outlook. “In fact, 13 of our past 15 winters have been warmer than the 20th-century average.” The State Climate Office is forecasting “overall above-normal temperatures” and “fewer wintry events and less snowfall.” Snow lovers in western North Carolina may have the best chances of “big snow events.” “From the Triad and Charlotte eastward, the chances of significant snow are lower , and wintry events

The first snow of the season has reached western North Carolina, where as much as 4 inches might fall at higher elevations, the National Weather Service says. Snow showers began in the middle of the night near the Tennessee state line, and forecasters expect accumulation to be no more than an inch at lower elevations in the mountains. “Another round of snow can be expected this afternoon into tonight,” the National Weather Service said Friday.

How to help prevent pipes from freezing during NC's upcoming cold snap

Most of North Carolina will see its first freeze this weekend with temperatures dropping to the 30s and 20s in some locations. Weather officials are warning residents to protect plants, drain hoses and protect exposed pipes to prevent problems during the cold. Here’s what you need to know about how to prepare your home: How can you keep your pipes from freezing? Think back to your elementary school science lessons. Water freezes at 32 degrees, expanding by about 9%. When water freezes in your home’s pipes it expands, capable of causing a number of problems including cracks that can then cause flooding. Pipes can freeze at 32 degrees, but insulated pipes don’t start freezing until the temperatures reach the 20s. The American Red Cross recommends the following to protect pipes from freezing: Drain water from swimming pool and water sprinkler supply lines. Do not use antifreeze because it’s dangerous to wildlife and the environment. Remove, drain and store hoses outdoors and close valves supplying outdoor hose bibs (the outdoor water faucet where a hose is attached). Add insulation to attics, basements and crawl spaces, which will help maintain higher temperatures. Keep garage doors closed if there are water supply lines

4-inches of snow, 50 mph gusts, 15-degree lows forecast in parts of NC mountains

The impact of a cold front on North Carolina’s higher elevations continues to worsen, with forecasters calling for more snow, lower temperatures and more powerful wind gusts. Forecasters initially expected “the season’s first snow” would be no more than an inch along the NC-Tennessee state line, but it’s now suspected up to 4 inches could fall in areas like northern Swain County. “If moisture ends up lingering longer over these areas, they can expect an uptick in snow amounts,” the National Weather Service says. The bigger concern will be the bitter cold and wind gusts starting Thursday night, forecasters say. Gusts of 40 to 50 mph are possible along ridge tops Friday and Saturday, resulting in very cold wind chills when “parts of the mountains will drop into the 12 to 20F degree range,” the NWS says. Temperatures could feel as low as 10 degrees west of Boone, making frostbite and hypothermia possible for those who venture out with exposed skin, forecasters say. “Highs from Friday through early next week are also expected to remain below normal for mid-November,” NWS forecasters say. The cold front will stretch from one end of the state to the other on Sunday, with lows
