so for a look how much ice and things back over to meteorologist alyssa corfont. >>> this is a tricky forecast because we're looking a definitive line of where it is rain and freezing rain and that these totals. one to three in the band of blue. and you go to the northern portions of wake county to the possible. and that includes durham, chapel hill, hillsborough, five to ten inches of snow shaded white. and that includes all of person county and orange county and mecklenburg county. up to maybe an inch possible. but i think you're warm enough to see that transition to rain a little earlier. and the ice forecast making today's travel very dangerous. half an inch of ice possible in chatum and western portions of our viewing area. and the windchill is also critical. it feels like 23 in raleigh. overnight, we see the wintry mix transition to light snow, especially raleigh and north ward. 29 the overnight low. and we're not going to see a lot melt tomorrow. 35. we could see snow accumulations in the morning and 42 on sunday and plenty of sunshine. we will have earned it by then and 48 and

and let's check in with meteorologist alyssa corfont. and we have activity across the state. >>> yes. we've been watching this wintery weather moving in. so if you have to head out the door this morning, know that is what you're going to start to encounter and flakes flying in person county and roxboro and hillsborough this morning and then we have milder air down to the south and that means a frozen mixture that no one needs to deal with. so here is a closer look right now at wake county. you can see the airport under the shade of white and mooresville and cary and the crew is driving around wade avenue and they are league is in as well. west. that is where we're seeing the reports of snow and roxboro and person county and chapel hill as well. and we're expecting the intensity of the precipitation to increase through the morning falls, the faster the road deteriorate. here's cumberland county and that is where we're seeing a lot of freezing rain fall from stedman. and that extends off to the east of cumberland county and rose borrow and

meteorologist alyssa corfont. we know that the ice and wind and snow and what a mix. >> that is the problem. it is the mix of all of those. we can not see clear. but it did not look like -- we cannot see clearly. but it did not accumulate there yet. but it is on our lens at the preston country club in cary. and we saw the snow during the time frame here in wake county through the triangle through durham and orange county and off to the south. and pink that is sleet and freezing rain. let's take a tour of our radar. you see it really coming down in person county. and emma wright is in the field. and moving to granville and 15 towards oxford and off towards vance county and hender soon and i'll bring -- henderson. and i'll bring you into wake county and we're seeing the snow accumulate on the roadways. it is very slick as you head out and downtown as well. i'm going to slide you off to the east. on 795 and wilson and towards golds better row, we're getting -- goldsboro we're getting sleet own bridges on overpasses.

let's check in with meteorologist alyssa corfont. it is cold. i didn't see much frost on the windows. is it too cold for that? >>> it's not too cold. i think you just got lucky, mike. you'll have to dress in layers because it is very cold out there. and we're dealing with the clear skies this morning and we see the temperatures colder than yesterday morning. and here we are right now, current temperatures 15 in south hill and henderson. and more of the low 20s. but you can see theup date temperature in fayetteville at 21 and goldsboro right at 20. so here's your fast forecast. clear skies from start to finish today and close to 17 at 8:00 a.m. it will feel more like ten with a little bit of a breeze that is out there. 28 at lunchtime and plenty of sunshine and near freezing for 33 here in raleigh later today. and then we'll drop back into the mid-20s. by wednesday evening, we could be tracking flurries into central north carolina. i'll have the latest on that coming up in your forecast. right now, let's switch gears and check in with traffic. if

. >>> and the look at your forecast, alyssa corfont, keep >> on air, ienl, wherever you are, "wncn today" starts now. >> breaking news, st. augustine's university in raleigh goes on lockdown after a shooting on campus. >> durham police also investigating a crash involving one of their own. >>> plus, a round of snow today, alyssa corfont will let us know what to expect and when. >> thanks for watching "wncn today", glad you're with us, i'm mike gonzalez. >> i'm stefan chase, one of our big stories this morning, yes, the freezing temperatures. >> yeah, it sure is cold outside and because of those cold temperatures, mecklenburg county schools in virginia have starting late, but let's check in with meteorologist alyssa corfont sounds like if the snow does hit, it will be the evening commute, right? >> yeah, the timing will be critical. right now looking at pretty clear conditions right around the triangle, anyways. back to our west, dealing with more clouds than anything else. those clouds are quickly going to move in throughout the course cold temperatures first, we'll

. >> all right, welcome back to wncn today, in the weather center with meteorologist alyssa corfont, i've been holding my coffee like a warmer, it's cold in here too. >> i brought my indoor mittens, it's cold. >> no other way to say it, cold outside and now you say there's a chance of precipitation coming on later on this afternoon? >> yeah, and it's going to be unfortunate timing because it's going to be for the evening drive home, the timing will be crucial. >> yeah. >> yeah, so here we are this morning, this morning's commute will be an easy one, 19 degrees, the bottom of our camera a little frosted up though at the airport 19. right now, here in raleigh, temperatures elsewhere, 16 sanford, 19 pinehurst. 20 right thousand ray -- right now raeford, 21 clinton, and still the upper teens as we check in around rocky mount, rather. and goldsboro, this morning. these temperatures are just the beginning. as we head throughout the day, we'll see the temperatures but right now as we head in the rest of the morning, 17 at 7:00 a.m., climb just a degree to 18 by 8:00 a.m. and then the low 20

i'm in the weather center with meteorologist alyssa corfont. we had a lot of ice, friday and saturday. but yesterday a lot tv melted off. it sounds like some of the same is going to happen today. >>> yes. i expect more melting to happen. but the coming nights will not be as cold. but out there this morning, if you're seeing roads shining, likely ice. so 26 degrees right now. and this is a live picture from our tower camera. where a few cars are braving the cold temperatures this morning. and here's the satellite and radar. maybe waking up to a few clouds. out in the west, we're looking a little more cloud cover this morning and also out in the mountains and even further west towards kentucky and tennessee. all and all, it will be a good day for us. lots of melting like we saw yesterday. but this morning, well below freezing. so look for black ice this morning. 26 in ravel -- in raleigh and littleton. and roxboro 21 degrees. so here is the setup today. the sunrises 7:21. till then, we'll have to watch for the temperatures very cold. and we drop

for how much ice and snow you can expect, we'll send things back to meteorologist alyssa corfont. >>> we're dealing with warm air and cold air moving into north carolina, the forecast is tricky we have been fine tuning it in the last two days. one to two three in the north earn portions could see up to five inches of snow and sleet. and that is the same situation for durham and chapel hill. i have to point out this area shaded white. this is northern portions of orange county. and it looks like it is the hillsborough area and person and granville county and five to ten inches of snow and sleet. and not going to be the biggest snow or the biggest ice event. but you combined with windy conditions and the travel is very dangerous today. so this is a bulls eye for ice to the west of raleigh. half an inch possible in those areas. and quarter inch possible for raleigh and area to the south. and i've been talking about the wind and it will strengthen this afternoon. this is the windchill right now. 20 degrees is what it feels like in raleigh and the teens in roxboro. and the high today in ra

but first we want to get to meteorologist alyssa corfont who has your forecast. >>> good morning. just down from the national whether service, we have a -- weather service, we have a winter storm warning that will go into effect at midnight. this includes wake county, durham and pretty much from wake north and west and the line extends down to more and lee county. if our on the southeastern portions of that line, you're still under a winter weather advisory as we speak. let's take a look at the big picture. it doesn't look like much right now. but there's an area of low pressure developing in texas and louisiana. and that will be moving into our area, bringing all of that moisture with it. and it collides with the cold air and that is it when we could have the winter storm develop tomorrow. in the meantime, this morning, not as cold as where we have been. 28 in durham, 27 in raleigh, 31 in littleton, fayetteville and clinton. so let's get to the forecast today. before the winter storm arrives, we're tracking plenty of sunshine and mid-20s at 8:00 a.m. and 38 at noon and 44 the aft

. >>> all right, with all that being said, let's head over straight to meteorologist afls alyssa corfont with a look. >> good morning to you and good morning to you at home. very different from yesterday sunshine today, the clouds move in and moving in to orange and person county, eventually in to the triangle this morning but right now, wake county is on the dry side. we dropped a whole degree, 49 in raleigh, 48 durham, mid 40s in henderson and south hill. there is one or two areas in the then we have 40s, excuse me, around fayetteville. 45 in lillington. so let's get to your forecast. temperatures this morning will continue to drop until about 8:00 a.m. and that's where i'm expecting to be right around 46 degrees. showers possible this morning, 47 at lunch time still a few sprinkles and then i think we'll be drier this afternoon. afternoon high of only 48 yesterday. we hit 61, that's going to be a big drop. but don't you worry, i think the 60s will be back just in time for the weekend ahead. of course i'll have the forecast for you in just a bit. but let's check in with traffic if you'

i don't know. >>> let's check with meteorologist alyssa corfont. be working with you gals this morning. >> oh, thank you for that. 20s and 30s as you get ready to head for the door. a very cold one out there. durham. 28 raleigh. 29 lillington. and sanford now at 24 degrees. there's enough of a breeze out there and for some of you it's making a big difference. 23 is what it feels like in raleigh. feels like 21 roxboro. around the sand hills it actually feels like 25 now in fayetteville. i've been talking about it throughout the day. dress in layers. 20s this morning but the 50s eventually this afternoon. at lunchtime we'll be in the middle, 48. the 50s are going to stick around but you need the umbrella in the coming days. i'll let you know when coming up in the complete forecast. let's switch gears and check with traffic. seeing more cars in this direction. this is i-40 and reedy creek road. slowdowns to report but plenty of cars. we have an accident though in downtown raleigh, i just alerted you on this a little bit ago. this accident this morning

a florida woman wasn't too up on her bed >>> back in the weather center with alyssa corfont. i was a little disappointed when i saw the note that said more clouds. like yesterday? >> exactly like yesterday but here's the catch. just today. tomorrow the sun returns. >> for friday? >> you're going to be doing the happy dance tomorrow. i know you mike. let's talk about today. cloudy skies, 37 degrees. again we're usually a bit milder with the clouds. that is where we are. typical overnight lows should be near the freezing mark. most of us have a little more cloud cover around the area but some of you are waking up to a few showers. those showers mainly south of the triangle. a lot of this is going to fizzle out the next few hours. the main line of showers that i'm watching to develop won't arrive until later this afternoon. so keep the umbrella nearby. areas that are not seeing as roxboro, you're 26 degrees. 28 south hill. 30 henderson. in raleigh 37. a little more cloud cover the further south you go. the sun doesn't rise until 7:19. in the meantime we're dropping into the mid-

. >>> but right now getting your day starting with the forecast with meteorologist alyssa corfont. good morning. >> good morning, guys, and good morning to you at home as well. we're looking at clear skies this morning, that on our satellite radar composite, a nice change from where we were 24 hours ago. with those clearer skies come colder temperatures, right now at freezing in roxboro, 35 in raleigh, 34 in clayton, the upper 30s around fayetteville and clinton. that's really the biggest change from yesterday morning because if you remember, temperatures hills yesterday at this time. here's a look at your fast forecast, a little bit of fog south of the triangle this morning, 35 at 8:00 a.m., 45 at noon, plenty of sunshine and then we're looking at highs in the 50s, 51 is where i think will be normal, 52, i don't think you'll get closer than that in your afternoon. that's the latest look in your forecast, to more in just a little bit, let's go ahead and check in with traffic on this friday morning, start you off with i-40 and wade avenue, just a few cars out in this direction. hey,

. >> and i'm stefan chase, a look at traffic as always, checking in with meteorology alyssa corfont. >> we're looking at clearing skies and those clearing skies paving the way for colder if you remember yesterday, we had the 20s, 30s, 40s. almost areawide this morning right now we're in the 30s. at freezing in sanford, siler city, here in raleigh we're at 34. durham, 37. south hill, you're checking in right around 35 degrees this morning. so here's your forecast for this friday, plenty of sunshine. a little bit of fog though as we do start off our friday. and that will be mainly south around the sand hills. 45 lunch time, plenty of sunshine. near normal later today, our normal high is 52, i'm expecting a temperature right around 51. i'll have a closer look at your weekend ahead in just a little bit. but let's check in with traffic as you get ready to head out the door on this friday morning. >>> this is i-440 and athens drive, just a few cars in this direction. good news if you're heading out this way. no accidents, no slowdowns and very similar conditions on our live drive map, all

corfont, i think the top priority is to stay inside laugh half. >> i wish we could do that! wouldn't that be nice? it's cold out there this morning, and then for your evening drive home we're tracking the potential for light flurries, snow showers as well. 19 degrees, live look from the raleigh durham international airport, we're getting a frosty louisburg, 15 south hill, on delay, mecklenburg county they won't open until 10:00 a.m. further south of the triangle, 22 lillington, 21 pinehurst and raeford. here's what you need to know as you're planning your day, 8:00 a.m. temperature, 18 we're at freezing at lunch time, pretty cloudy already at lunch time and flurries late in the day, in to the evening hours, critical timing because i do expect them to be here during your drive home. 6:00 temperature around 33. high pressure still ahead this morning. look at this back to our west. this is what's going to move in to our area, bringing us that potential for flurries. late this afternoon, in to the evening hours. so at 9:00 this morning, we'll already be say partly to mostly clou

we're in the weather center with meteorologist alyssa corfont. i was a little under the weather yesterday. i went outside to clean the car, it was chilly. i'm glad to hear we have nicer temperatures today's. >> the mid-50s coming later today have put a smile on my face. yesterday it was just too cold. let's look live outside. it's pretty cold outside this morning. you can't really tell that from this picture but, this picture is looking pretty nice. nice skyline of downtown raleigh lit up on this thursday morning. let's get to our satellite and radar composite and look at this, for another morning in a row, really not tracking a cloud in sight. that is why these temperatures are very cold for this time of year. we're about 29 in raleigh, also 29 lillington. sanford 23 degrees. pinehurst 30 and fayetteville here's your drive time forecast, sun doesn't rise until 7:25. until then the temperatures can continue to drop. so around 27 at 7:00 a.m. 29 at 8:00 a.m. and back to 34 by 9:00. as we head into the afternoon sunshine still around and we've been

alyssa corfont. >> good morning. this forecast starting with a few showers, down across the sand hills. the showers around now samson and cumberland county and extending a very broken line towards portions of wilson county this morning. needless to say if you're seeing the showers this morning -- if you're not seeing the showers this morning, take your umbrella with you but steadier afternoon. in the meantime let's talk raleigh. 34 durham. you can see just updating in lewisburg at freezing now. down around the sand hills where they are seeing a little more cloud cover this morning, more of the 40s. the 20s. 26 roxboro and in south hill. also north of the triangle develop. visibility down to a half-mile in henderson. five miles in roxboro. seven miles in south hill and durham. 36 at 8:00 a.m. just a few isolated showers, most of us dry at lunchtime and then i was talking about the steadier showers, i think those arrive closer to 3:00, 4:00 this afternoon and could stick around for the evening drive ho

. >>> let's toss it over to another trend setter, alyssa corfont. >> oh, you're setting the bar high. let's check your forecast, the time now 6:18, this is a live picture from our shaw university camera in downtown raleigh. as we look towards the skyline, no problems right now. we are tracking the chance for a few showers, some of those starting to fall right over wake county back to our west towards chatham county and lee county. but this isn't going to cause a lot of problems this morning. showers very light in nature. just moving on through this morning. and i think we'll see some drier conditions by the afternoon hours. let's go ahead and get to the temperatures because the cloudy we're looking at very mild temperatures. so 48 believe it or not in raleigh, 47 in durham, in henderson 42 right now in roxboro. near 50 in pinehurst. around fayetteville and clinton this morning, the mid 40s. here's your hour by hour forecast. the catch here, temperatures don't climb a lot today. so where we are right now is very close to where we'll be this afternoon. i expect us to continue to drop by

augustine university. >> but first with meteorologist alyssa corfont here with a look at your forecast, a chance for snow later on. >>> yeah, that's exactly right, mike. because of the extremely cold temperatures this morning, mecklenburg county in virginia, public schools are starting at 10:00 a.m. this morning. right now we're looking at very cold temperatures, just as cold where we were yesterday, but the change for today is going to be that possibility for flurries as we head in to the afternoon. we're already starting to see a few clouds, maybe a flurry or two around charlotte and then more towards the mountains again though it's going to be the better part of the day until we start to see that snowy weather so 20 in durham, and raleigh right now, 22 in lillington, siler city, you're at 17 degrees, and then as we head towards the virginia border, remember, mecklenburg county you're operating on a delay, 15 degrees this morning there, 15 roanoke rapids, 16 louisburg. here's your forecast, we'll start off in the teens at 8:00 a.m., climb to friezing -- freezing at lunch time, turnin

let's turn over to meteorologist alyssa corfont. do we have any warmup in the future? >> well it is not coming for the n few days and we're only talking about a warm up in the 40s. but this morning, we're in the teens once you factor in the windchill. some of you will feel like the single digits. we'll see sunny skies, though, as the sunrises. you see the temperatures, you see the temperature updating in littleton to 20 degrees and 12 in pinehurst and raleigh, we fell another deanne -- another degree. 16 in henderson and louisburg. 17 out the door at 8:00 a.m. but it is going to feel more like 10 degrees once you factor in the breeze. 28 at lunchtime and plenty of sunshine and near freezing for an afternoon high today. and that temperature will be a few degrees colder than yesterday. and we'll quickly drop into the mid-20s by 6:00 p.m. and this is the cold that we're talking about this week. and tomorrow we'll be talking about flurries. and i'll let you know what a chance for those arrive in your complete forecast. let's check in with traffic. this is 540 and newburn a

first over to meteorologist alyssa corfont for a look at this chilly and now snowy forecast. >>> that's exactly right. a lot it going to change in the coming days this morning. and we're looking at clear conditions. but tomorrow wintry weather could be moving through. so ahead of that a winter storm warning is in effect at midnight for the counties shaded pink. and the areas shaded blue will be under a winter weather advisory. and they go into effect at midnight. and the big picture showing the clear conditions around north carolina, but it is back towards texas that we're watching for an area of low and move across the gulf states. it will pick up lots of moisture and it moves into our area and colliding with the cold air and we'll see the winter storm. but today, the temperatures, not quite as cold as where they have been. 31 in durham, 31 in goldsboro and at freezing in clinton this morning. so a quick look at your forecast. we'll be above freezing at 38 at lunchtime and 44 for the afternoon high and back into the upper 30s by 6:00 p.m. and this is what i'm thinking for the winter st
