Today is another one of those double-days at the RBC Center. N.C. State will host N.C. Central at 2pm. Then at 7pm the Carolina Hurricanes will host the Chicago Blackhawks. This means that arena crews will have 2 hours to conduct the changeover from basketball to hockey. Oh, did I mention that Governor Perdue has issued a State of Emergency and urges everyone to stay at home due to the state’s taxed highway patrol? "It is going to be very difficult for us to make roads safe and passable,” state Department of Transportation engineer Steve Halsey told WRAL.

As mentioned below, NCSU’s game will be streamed on the internet. The Hurricanes game, however, will be carried on Fox Sports South, so we’ll see how many fans are in the stands as the 23 degree day moves into night.
