A Second Round of Snow — by Nightfall
This is the first time in the five or so years that I’ve lived here that we’ve received more than a trace of snow twice in one season. From midnight on, it was mostly a mix of water and snow, with some spots covered while others randomly weren’t. Borrowing a phrase from a friend, I decided to go “snowcycling” to hit up some of the usual vantage points to catch the snow coming down.
The area around the convention center and Poole’s Diner
The images in this post are how I see Raleigh during the snow, how about you? Send your pictures (daytime or nighttime) to goodnightraleigh@gmail.com and we’ll add them here. If you use flickr or have a blog/website, be sure to include it so we can give you credit. Please resize images to 900×600 pixels if possible.

Hey, aren’t you from the mountains? Why are you so excited about snow. LOL.

All the more reason to be excited about it! We’ve only received trace amounts and little to no accumulation for the vast majority of the time I’ve lived here. Not to mention biking in it was very fun.

Great pics all…I love the contrast between Raleigh downtown 21st century and long ago Raleigh 18th century.

Thanks for including our photographs of Haywood Hall. I agree with Raleigh Boy; they do make an interesting contrast with the downtown scenes.
