State lawmakers could be headed to raleigh this coming week to deal with new district maps. I would say maps are probably in process, in the process of being prepared.

Zack, the big story is the weather. I woke up and wasnt expecting to see an inch accumulation outside my. Zack i think most of the areas saw less than that but the bigger implication is the wind. Even though there is a light dusting of snow, we will be seeing it whipping around through the Morning Hours. There is still an advisory in effect, folks, and that wind is going to stick around all day long. Dont expect too much of a warmup. Bitterly cold temperatures. We are talking wind chill values, yes, maybe even below zero degrees in some mountain locations. Valentines day, looking dry. But the next round of rain and snow is quickly following. Zack we saw it late last night, and we are seeing ate cross the mountains, folks, especially for those north of i40, a light trusting of snow at the moment. At this point its coming to an end. The implications are still there. We are seeing it on the roadways and on top of that, the wind are whipping around right now. So, still, some light snowfalling as we make our way west into the smokies and into the northern mountains as well. Overall, as we make our way further south, you are starting the upstate is going to see a lot of blue sky true through the Morning Hours and maybe some clouds in western North Carolina but the sun is returning, hover, dont expect a warmup. Right now, temperatures in the low 20s. Mid 20s in some areas as we make our way further west. Its hovering in the Freezing Point for the upstate, but its wind chill values that are going to be very, very cold. You see the winds whipping around at 23 Miles Per Hour in asheville. 12 Miles Per Hour in franklin as well as andrews. And they are going to be sustained at that point all day long. So, although it may be saying 20 degrees or so on your thermometer, its feeling more like the Single Digits if not below zero. So, there is still a wind chill advisory for many western North Carolina counties and we will talk about the Single Digits all day long. Thats what it feels like. You will want to bundle up if you are heading out the door, but we are giving you this maybe stay inside a few hours. The Road Conditions are going to be improving by the late morning or early afternoon, but i think they could be hazardous at times with maybe some of the wet and possibly freezing conditions. Now, as we head into about lunchtime, you start to see the clouds already dispersing. The wind vectors are still long and still going to be whipping around. We are staying clear in the afternoon hours and overnight hours, so a very chilly start to the day sunday as well, but then we pull in a bit of cloud cover. Watch what happens as we make our way into sunday afternoon. Here comes the snow. Now, i think the majority of us are going to stay dry, but come monday, thats when things are certainly going to be shifting. And i want us to notice a few things on the map. Blue, green, and pink. We are you can thatting talking snow in the Higher Elevations. As we make our way west, rain. And the pink is ice and sleet. Big implications for east of i26. How is this playing out . At first the low pressure system is still going to be wrapping that in, its going to be snow for those in western North Carolina. And i mentioned ice as we head further to the east. Low pressure system starts sweep across our region. Its actually going to transition into rain as we make our way west of i26. Temperatures are going to be warming above that Freezing Point. And then, as this continues to push off and become a coastal low, we will transition things back into snow monday evening, bringing us into Tuesday Morning as temperarares are going to be dropping off once again. But, i think at that point the moisture content is maybe pushed far off to the east and it will be leaving little in terms of any accumulation at that point. So, still, a few days out from the major event but we are loloing at a few inches in many locations and 68 in Higher Elevations. 25 degrees we are forecasting in asheville this morning. Certainly not going to be feeling like it. We see a bit of a rebound tomorrow. But late chance of rain and snow hours bringing sexual abuse ive smoked a lot and quit a lot, but ended up nowhere.
