Trading in the snow for sand

WRIGHTSVILLE BEACH, NC (WWAY) — From last week’s snow to this week’s sunshine people were at Wrightsville Beach Friday to remove a few layers and enjoy the milder weather. 

Many took advantage of the 70s today by enjoying the beach. People were seen taking a walk, relaxing, and walking their pets. Some people even braved the chilly water and took a dive.  

Two Wrightsville Beach residents, Clark Hollar and Colton Fraund were happy to trade in the snow for the sand 

“We literally live like right up the road and it’s crazy to think that there was snow on the ground last week and now we are able to walk out here in shorts and without any shoes on,” Hollar said. 

“Totally nuts, last week was surreal but happy to get the warm weather back,” Fraund shared. 

The roommates added although they enjoyed the snow they prefer the warmer days over the colder ones.
