We're tracking some significant weather changes heading our way this Friday. A cold front moving up from the Gulf of Mexico is bringing a mixed bag of precipitation to Western North Carolina. The National Weather Service is warning of light snow, sleet, and freezing rain that could create some hazardous travel conditions, especially in the morning hours. The main impacts are expected Friday morning, with areas west of the Interstate 85 corridor, including our foothills and mountains, facing the highest potential for winter weather. Good news is that accumulations are expected to be limited, and any wintry conditions should transition to rain by Friday afternoon. Temperatures will remain below normal through the weekend, though we'll see some slight warming by Saturday and Sunday. The forecast shows increasing clouds today with highs near 48 degrees, then Friday's rain and wintry mix mainly before 3 p.m. with a high near 39. Saturday and Sunday look mostly cloudy to partly sunny with highs around 50 degrees. The National Weather Service is advising residents to monitor local forecasts and plan accordingly, especially if you're traveling Friday morning.
Now, if you're looking for something fun to do this weekend, we've got plenty of holiday activities happening around town. The Winter Wonder Walk returns for its fifth year, opening tonight and tomorrow night at the Adventure Center of Asheville. It's an immersive outdoor theater experience through the Kingdom of Winterland with live actors, interactive stations, and even a snowball fight where you can participate. Tickets are twenty dollars, and kids three and under get in free. A dollar from every ticket goes to MANNA FoodBank. The Winter Lights at the North Carolina Arboretum continues to dazzle with over a million dancing lights and glowing garden displays. And if you haven't checked out the Asheville Yards Holiday Ice Rink yet, it's running through January 19th with skating, a holiday market, and art installations.
Looking ahead, Santa Claus arrives at Biltmore Park tomorrow afternoon from three to six p.m. for visits, with live music from The Paper Crowns and holiday entertainment. The Holiday Market there will feature more than thirty-five local artisans and farmers selling Christmas trees, crafts, treats, and unique gifts from three to seven p.m.
Winter is officially settling in, so bundle up for Friday's weather and get out there to enjoy all the festive activities our community has to offer.
