The National Weather Service had upgraded the Winter Weather Advisory to a Winter Weather Warning overnight for Granville, Person, Vance, Warren and Halifax Counties. Snowfall amounts have ranged from 1 to 2 inches, with 4 to 5 inches in the Virginia border counties. Only a trace of additional snow is expected, mainly east of the Triangle, through 8 a.m., with precipitation ending by mid-morning.
Some slick spots on the highways are likely. All residents are urded to use extra caution when traveling. Granville County Emergency Management advises that sunlight and drier air will be moving in later this morning, which will help melt most of the snow throughout the day.
