Weather Closings in Charlotte

Sometimes the winter weather in Charlotte turns icy, or a snowstorm that was predicted to drop 1-2" stalls and dumps a foot or more of snow on the area.  This can cause numerous last minute closings of schools, businesses, meetings and other events.  How to find out the latest information?

CBS (wbtv), ABC (wsoc), and NBC (wcnc) all keep up-to-the-minute information about closings and delays on their local websites.  They also run a continuous scroll across the bottom of the TV screen.  On the radio, WBT (1110 am) gives frequent updates, with emphasis on the Charlotte-Mecklenburg School System, with it being so large (over 125,000 students at this time).

Remember that if the area you live in appears to be clear, with no ice or snow, but schools are closed, the decision was not made lightly.  With the large area covered by CMS, it is completely possible that you may be looking at clear roads and little weather, but on the other side of the county the roads might be hazardous for driving.
