A mix of rain and snow fell in the Charlotte area after 10 a.m., with little to no accumulation at first. A light snow fell in Mooresville near Lake Norman just before 11:30 a.m. and finally began sticking to the ground at 3 p.m.

A storm on its way to the Carolinas could blanket much of N.C. with a thick layer of snow. Raleigh and Chapel Hill could get around 2 inches of snow, while up to 3 inches are expected in Durham between now and Thursday, The News & Observer reported.

The last in a long train of storms will bring snow and ice to the Mid-Atlantic and Carolinas on Wednesday. While Washington will be near the northern edge of the storm starting late in the morning — with a dusting to a half-inch of snow possible in the District and areas to the south by the evening — impacts will be moderate to major farther south.
