Winter Weather in Greater Burke, North Carolina

As a wedge of cold air spread south across the eastern seaboard, rain changed to freezing rain during the early morning hours of the 1st across the Blue Ridge of North Carolina, as well as the I-40 corridor through the Piedmont and foothills. Ice accretion was light, generally only a few hundredths of an inch, although some locations saw as much as a tenth of an inch. Icing was primarily confined to elevated surfaces, so travel was not impacted significantly.
