Tue Dec 03 15:40:00 UTC 2024: ## Snow Showers Prompt School Schedule Changes Across Western North Carolina
**Avery County, NC** – Unexpected snow showers sweeping across western North Carolina Tuesday morning forced numerous school districts to adjust their schedules. Several districts opted for remote learning, while others implemented two-hour delays. A number of schools remained closed altogether.
The snowfall, while brief and light, left a dusting of snow in many areas, particularly north and west of Mecklenburg County. While the snow has largely passed, temperatures remain frigid, with highs in the mid-40s forecast for Charlotte and 20s and 30s in the mountain regions.
The impacted districts and schools varied in their responses. Specific details on which districts implemented remote learning, delays, or closures were not provided in the initial report. However, it was noted that within Catawba County, while most schools opened with a two-hour delay, several elementary and middle schools, along with a high school and the Catawba Rosenwald Education Center, transitioned to remote learning for the day.
Residents are advised to check with their local school districts for the most up-to-date information on school schedules. For continued weather updates, viewers are encouraged to check WBTV’s on-air and online platforms.
