Thanks! I really hope we don't lose power. We're not far from Mulberry.

Here is the outage map...from just one of the power service providers.




Looks like Mulberry.

Which part of Wilkes? Or, is it spotted all over?

At least 417 without power in Wilkes...who use Duke Energy.


Still chance for snow showers going into Tuesday morning. Of course, nothing major expected down here.

Check out the snow and wind up at Beech Mountain. I have experienced wind exceeding 140 mph and wind chill of 40 below at that location.
