We’re not the ones to usually toot our horn but Nov 19 is an important date for Foothills Weather Network.

16 years ago, a couple of certified meteorologists took their knowledge of western North Carolina weather to social media and from there’s it’s grown from just a loyal group of citizens across Burke County to now a nine-county coverage area with nearly 80,000 followers on Facebook.

Foothills Weather Network cannot thank our followers and sponsors enough for the support in making this all possible. The weather team is looking forward to continue and grow even more in the future.
