Outage risk in North Carolina

North Carolina's outage risk varies sharply by region: the coastal Wilmington/Cape Fear area faces direct hurricane and tropical storm landfalls plus storm-surge and flooding-driven outages nearly every summer and fall, the Piedmont (Charlotte, Raleigh) sees severe thunderstorm and occasional ice-storm outages, and Raleigh in particular is prone to winter ice accumulation on power lines that Charlotte sees less often.
