  • Lovely photo from Christy Koury of yesterday's snow, bringing 12-18 inches throughout Western North Carolina, and continues through this morning with a mix of snow and sleet.🌀🌀🌀 @citizentimes shares snowfall totals and more photos from this weekend (link in our profile). ⛄ We hope you're all bundled and enjoying. Be safe out there today and tag us in your snow photos so we can join in the fun! #explorebrevard #letitsnow #transylvaniacounty #snow2018 #ncmountains
  • While we're not seeing flurries yet, the forecast says they'll be arriving this afternoon and into the evening. In the meantime, take a look at @romanticasheville's Top 10 list of easily accessible frozen waterfalls in Pisgah and Nantahala National Forests that you may want to safely venture out and explore in the coming days! 💦 And if you do, don't forget to tag #visitwaterfalls in your Insta 📸! #explorebrevard #hikenc #waterfall #frozenwaterfall #getoutside #pisgahforest #nantahalanationalforest
  • We hope everyone is prepped and ready for what forecasters are calling a snowstorm similar to that of the Blizzard of 1993. With 11 to 18 inches in the forecast, it's not one to take lightly. As you plan for winter weather, here's a fun look at a photo from that snowstorm in '93 from the The Sylva Herald. We're curious--what are you predictions for snowfall this weekend? #explorebrevard #snowstorm #winterinthemountains #visitnc #snow #letitsnow
  • There's nothing sweeter than small mountain town community festivities in the fall and through the holidays, when everyone is bundled and gathered together to enjoy music, art, dancing, good food and fun together.
