Restaurants, businesses and events closed for Charlotte’s second snow of 2026

[ad_1]

Here we go again. For the second weekend in a row, a winter storm is changing weekend plans across Charlotte.

Starting Friday through Sunday, the National Weather Service is calling for 2 to 7 inches of snow and extreme cold — a wind chill of 0 on Saturday. AccuWeather Senior Meteorologist Alex Sosnowski told The Charlotte Observer that it could be the biggest snowstorm in decades.

Businesses, restaurants and groups planning events across the Charlotte area planning changes to their schedules … again. Just last weekend, a weekend winter store with ice accumulation also led to closings and cancellations.
