The list is updated by personnel with the N.C. Division of Tourism, Film and Sports Development.  The state's Welcome Centers will also provide assistance to travelers seeking shelter from the storm.

NCSTD is also staffing its call center around the clock throughout the weekend so travelers can get up-to-date travel and lodging information by calling 1-800-VISIT-NC.
