Dreaming of a Snowy Durham
Snow days cause a lot of excitement in Durham, probably because there just aren’t that many. Here are some inspirational shots that capture our rare, wintery days.

It doesn’t take much to give residents and visitors a chance to enjoy a rare winter wonderland. With winter officially here, it seems like the right time to enjoy a few of our favorite images from winters past and present.
American Tobacco Campus
We probably only get to see ATC like this once or twice a year, but it’s always a pretty sight.
One more #Durham snow pic, because this parking deck is one of my favorite places to take photos. #WRALsnow @WRAL pic.twitter.com/0E3zf6rhLE

Duke Chapel
Duke Chapel is always gorgeous, but there’s something about seeing it covered in snow that makes it extra magical.
Foster’s Market
Outdoor seating becomes much more available after a winter storm at one of Durham’s most iconic restaurants.
Fosters = digging out. Overheard: “Lunch for 50!” #durham #ncsnow pic.twitter.com/T1FQ5Qon63

Tower at Mutual Plaza
On rare snowy days, it’s tough to see the “NC Mutual Life” at the top of the tower, but the shape is unmistakable.
Durham Neighborhoods
Neighborhood or Narnia? Sometimes it can be hard to tell the difference.
Carolina Theatre
It’s always fun to snuggle up and watch movies when it's snowing. What better than to do it in the classic Carolina Theatre.
Alley Twenty Six
One of the most picturesque spots in the city gets even more so after snowfall.
Major the Bull
Although Major’s expression never changes, it seems particularly appropriate for a snow day mood.
Sarah P. Duke Gardens
The grounds of Sarah P. Duke Gardens are beautiful under any circumstances, but cloaked in white may be its best look of all.
