North Carolina school closings, delays, remote learning list for Monday, Dec. 8
FORECAST. BUT I WILL SAY WE HAVE THE POSSIBILITY THIS MORNING. OUR MAIN HEADLINE IS THE FOG. YOU CAN SEE SUN SHINING THROUGH IT ON OUR WINSTON-SALEM CAMERA. PRETTY COOL VIEW THERE. BUT VISIBILITY IS REDUCED. THE THING THAT MAKES THIS FOG UNIQUE IS TEMPERATURES ARE BELOW FREEZING. SO THIS IS ACTUALLY FREEZING FOG. WE’RE IN THE MID AND UPPER 20S THIS MORNING AND FOG IS BLANKETING MUCH OF THE AREA. THOSE TINY LITTLE WATER DROPLETS AND FOG CAN ACTUALLY FREEZE ON CONTACT WITH COLDER SURFACES WHEN TEMPERATURES ARE BELOW FREEZING, AND MAKE FOR A THIN LITTLE LAYER OF ICE. SO KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR BLACK ICE AND A FEW SNEAKY SLICK SPOTS AS YOU HEAD OUT THE DOOR THIS MORNING, VISIBILITY IS REDUCED ACROSS MUCH OF THE PIEDMONT, MAINLY ALONG THAT I-40 CORRIDOR AND LOCATIONS TO THE SOUTH. VISIBILITY IS NEAR ZERO IN LEXINGTON, ASHEBORO, SILER CITY, AND BURLINGTON. SO YEAH, IT IS DENSE OUT THERE. WATCH FOR BLACK ICE ON BRIDGES AND KEEP AN EYE OUT ON, YOU KNOW, WATCH YOUR STEP AS YOU STEP OUT THE DOOR. SIDEWALKS. STEPS MAY BE SLICK AS WELL. FREEZING FOG ADVISORY AND DENSE FOG ADVISORY FOR MUCH OF THE AREA UNTIL 9:00 THIS MORNING. VISIBILITY AND ANY LINGERING SLICK SPOT CONCERNS SHOULD GO AWAY BY 910, 11:00 THIS MORNING, AND THEN WE’RE LEFT WITH SOME DECENT SUNSHINE. IT’S GOING TO BE PRETTY NICE INTO THE WEEKEND OVERALL. STILL A LITTLE ON THE CHILLY SIDE. UPPER 40S TO MAYBE NEAR 50 FOR A HIGH TEMPERATURE THIS AFTERNOON. UPPER 40S IN THE FOOTHILLS WITH A FEW PASSING CLOUDS. ONCE THE FOG CLEARS, AND FOR THE MOUNTAINS, SIMILAR TO YESTERDAY. LOW 40S WITH A FEW OF THOSE CLOUDS ROLLING IN. OVERALL HOLIDAY PARADES LOOKING GOOD. KERNERSVILLE RURAL HALL ARCHDALE DANVILLE. WE’VE STILL GOT A FEW HAPPENING ACROSS THE AREA. SHOULD BE A PRETTY NICE INTO THE WEEKEND, BUT TOMORROW THINGS GET A LITTLE MORE INTERESTING OVERNIGHT TONIGHT AND EARLY TOMORROW MORNING. CLOUDS INCREASE AND MOISTURE ARRIVES. THIS WILL LIKELY START AS SNOW UP IN THE MOUNTAINS, BUT LIGHT RAIN FOR PARTS OF THE FOOTHILLS AND PIEDMONT TRIAD. THE THING ABOUT TOMORROW’S SYSTEM IS AS AS A LITTLE BIT OF MOISTURE PASSES BY, COLD AIR WILL BE MOVING IN THROUGHOUT THE DAY, SO IT’S VERY POSSIBLE THAT WE SEE LIGHT RAIN MIXED WITH OR COMPLETELY CHANGE OVER TO WET SNOW ACROSS THE PIEDMONT TOMORROW. MOUNTAINS, FOOTHILLS AND PIEDMONT ALL WITH THE OPPORTUNITY FOR SOME LIGHT OR WET SNOWFALL TOMORROW. MAINLY WATCHING MID TO LATE MORNING THROUGH EARLY AFTERNOON. THERE WILL BE A FEW HOURS IN THERE WHERE WE MAY HAVE ENOUGH MOISTURE AND ENOUGH COLD AIR TO SQUEAK OUT SOME SNOW SHOWERS ACROSS PARTS OF THE AREA BY MID TO LATE AFTERNOON. THIS IS ALL STARTING TO TAPER OFF. MAYBE A COUPLE FLURRIES BEFORE THINGS ARE ALL SAID AND DONE. THEN WE TURN COLD MONDAY NIGHT AS FAR AS TOTALS GO. NOT EXPECTING BIG TOTALS, THE MOUNTAINS COULD PICK UP 1 TO 3IN. AND FOR THE REST OF US, MAINLY LOOKING AT JUST A LIGHT COATING ON COLD GRASSY SURFACES, ROADS SHOULD STAY MAINLY WET AND EVEN THEN OUR NORTHERN AREAS WOULD HAVE THE BEST OPPORTUNITY FOR THAT. THERE’S STILL A COUPLE POTENTIAL PITFALLS. WE DON’T HAVE A LOT OF MOISTURE WE’LL HAVE TO OVERCOME DRY AIR FIRST BEFORE WE CAN GET THAT RAIN AND SNOW TO START FALLING, AND THEN IT’S A MATTER OF DOES THE COLD AIR OVERLAP WITH THE MOISTURE LIKE WE NEED IT TO IN ORDER TO SEE THAT SNOW? SO NOT A GUARANTEE, BUT CERTAINLY A POSSIBILITY. HERE’S SOME MAIN POINTS FOR YOU AS TO WHAT WE’RE THINKING TOMORROW. COULD SEE THAT RAIN SNOW MIX, OR MAYBE A CHANGE TO WET SNOW TOMORROW MORNING THROUGH ABOUT EARLY AFTERNOON. SOME LIGHT ACCUMULATION POSSIBLE ON THOSE COLDER GRASSY SURFACES. ROADS SHOULD STAY MAINLY WET. NOT CONCERNED ABOUT SLICK TRAVEL DURING THE DAY TOMORROW, BUT MONDAY NIGHT AS TEMPERATURES FALL BELOW FREEZING, WE MAY NEED TO WATCH FOR SOME BLACK ICE, SO STAY TUNED. COULD BE A BUSY AND EXCITING MONDAY FOR SOME FOLKS. COLD FOR TUESDAY? THEN WE’RE INTO THE LOW 50S LATE IN THE WEEK. A FEW SHOWE
