Right now, the areas in North Carolina seeing snow or wintry precipitation are mainly:
- The northern and northwestern mountains, including parts of Avery, Mitchell, and Yancey counties, where accumulating snow has been reported and winter weather advisories are in effect.
- Parts of central and northern Piedmont and the northern Coastal Plain, especially near the Virginia border (including Triangle and Triad–adjacent counties), where light snow or a rain‑to‑snow mix and up to about an inch of accumulation are occurring under advisories.
Higher‑elevation ski areas in the mountains also currently have significant snow cover, with statewide snowpack well above normal for early winter. For exact, real‑time locations (down to specific towns or roadways), a live radar or local TV station weather page will give the most precise snapshot within the hour.
