Raleigh, NC – Light rain is expected to mix with snow across much of central and northern North Carolina early Sunday morning, potentially creating brief slick spots on bridges and overpasses, according to the National Weather Service in Raleigh.
Forecasters say precipitation will begin overnight Saturday and transition to wet snow in parts of the Triad, Triangle, and Roanoke Rapids regions before ending from west to east late Sunday afternoon. Temperatures will hover near freezing, cold enough for light accumulation mainly on grassy or elevated surfaces.
Most areas could see a dusting to around one inch of wet snow, with the highest totals along a corridor from Greensboro through Raleigh to Rocky Mount. Roads are expected to remain mostly wet, but elevated surfaces and untreated secondary routes could briefly become slippery during the morning hours.
Travelers are advised to use caution on I-40, I-85, and U.S. 70, particularly during the early morning commute as visibility may briefly decrease in heavier bursts. Any snow that does accumulate should melt quickly as temperatures rise above freezing later in the day.
