North Carolina has just witnessed its first snowfall of the season.
Both Beech and Sugar Mountain saw snowflakes and even accumulations yesterday afternoon into the evening, as could be seen on mountain’s cameras.
This unexpected flurry is part of a cold blast that’s also causing frost and freeze warnings across the region.
Cold, dry Canadian air has steadily dropped temperatures since Monday, leading to frost concerns in higher elevations.
Temperatures are expected to reach their lowest by Thursday, possibly setting new October records.
