The News and Observer
A rare pre-Christmas storm continued to pummel the Triangle on Monday, and Gov. Roy Cooper reported the mix of snow and freezing rain has killed at least three people in North Carolina. Conditions are expected to improve Tuesday, the National Weather Service said. But by Monday morning, the N.C. Highway Patrol had reported 672 car collisions statewide. “Please realize the potential for danger is very real,” Highway Patrol Commander Glenn McNeill said at a news conference. More than 2,000 trees fell during the winter storm, cutting power to more than 250,000 homes at the storm’s peak.
