Sponsor Our ArticlesHey there, Greenville residents! Buckle up because winter is making a special appearance this weekend. The National Weather Service (NWS) has issued an updated winter storm warning for our area, and it’s not something to take lightly. The warning goes into effect at 7 a.m. Friday and is expected to last until 7 a.m. Saturday.
So, what can we expect? The forecast predicts heavy mixed precipitation, which means we could see a messy mix of snow, sleet, and ice. Total snow and sleet accumulations could reach up to one inch, while ice accumulations could be between one-tenth and three-tenths of an inch across parts of northeast Georgia, Piedmont North Carolina, and of course, our beautiful Upstate South Carolina.
With this kind of weather, the NWS warns that many roads could become treacherous and potentially impassable. Not only could snow and ice make driving difficult, but the extra weight caused by ice could also lead to power outages. Snow-covered roads and downed tree limbs or power lines could severely impact both your morning and evening commutes.
The NWS advises everyone to monitor the latest forecasts for updates on this evolving situation. If you absolutely have to head out, make sure to slow down and use extra caution on the roads. Here are a few tips to keep in mind:
One of the most critical things to remember during icy conditions is to stay away from downed power lines. They can be extremely dangerous, so if you come across one, call 911 immediately. Never try to handle or move a downed power line yourself.
This winter storm warning presents not just an obstacle, but also an opportunity for us to come together as a community. Check on your neighbors, especially the elderly, and help those who may not be as comfortable navigating these harsh conditions. Remember, a little kindness can go a long way.
As we prepare for what could be a rather wintry weekend, let’s stay informed, stay safe, and look out for one another. The forecast can change, so make sure to stay tuned to updates from reliable sources. Here’s hoping this winter storm passes quickly and safely! Stay warm, Greenville!
