As much as I am a winter fan, Im not rooting for a ZR event. I dont think we will get one here near RDU but places NE along the VA/NC line will have way better chance.
I lived through the Dec 2008 Historic Ice storm in Southern New Hampshire. Thank God we had a generator hooked into our circuit board for our well, refrig, heat and some lights and wifi.
But the days after were just brutal cold. This was a view down the road from my house up there in Derry.
