Winter Storm in Warren, North Carolina

Snowfall amounts ranged from 3 to 6 inches across the county.

A strong upper level disturbance and a developing storm system spread rain across central NC during the early evening of January 27th. Initially the precipitation fell as rain with surface temperatures in the mid 40s to lower 50s. As the precipitation persisted and intensified, colder air aloft made it to the surface resulting in a changeover to snow after midnight before the precipitation ended by daybreak.
