Winter Weather in Rutherford Mountains, North Carolina

Light freezing rain and drizzle developed first across the northern mountains during the evening of the 13th, then gradually spread south along the Blue Ridge and east along the I-40 corridor through the overnight and early morning of the 14th. While accumulations were very light, generally no more than a few hundredths of an inch, some secondary roads and bridges and overpasses became slick and hazardous, resulting in a few accidents.
