The National Weather Service (NWS) forecasts a severe winter storm to affect many parts of the Mid-Atlantic and Southeast over the next few days. While most of the snow will likely occur farther north, they forecast icy rain in North Carolina and in the northern parts of South Carolina and Georgia. All NWS alerts can be searched by county on their website, which is updated regularly. The severity of the conditions in your area will be reflected in the statement issued by the NWS for where you live. Additional information explaining the different types of winter weather alerts can be found here.
Be sure to check out the CoCoRaHS training page for a refresher on how to measure winter precipitation with your rain gauge. Also, if you take any photos, be sure to send them to us at cisa@sc.edu so we can highlight them in our next newsletter.
