(RALEIGH) Weather forecasts suggest that conditions will slowly improve on Saturday. Measurable snowfall between 1-5 inches fell across the mountains, foothills, and into the western Piedmont overnight Friday, while sleet and freezing rain caused hazardous travel in central and eastern North Carolina, where accumulation was up to 0.15 inches.“We are very appreciative of all our first responders, DOT workers, emergency management personnel, and volunteers, as well as all the unsung heroes who work hard to keep North Carolinians safe,” said Governor Josh Stein.
