The National Weather Service has almost the entire state under a Winter Storm Warning for Saturday, so what does that mean for facilities operated by the NCDA&CS? According to Ron Moore, who oversees the facilities run by the Marketing Division, the plan is to remain open. But he recommends that people call ahead before heading out to ensure the facility hasn’t closed early. Below is a list of NCDA&CS facilities with links and phone numbers.
