DG Rewind-Fayetteville's Winter Guide with PWC’s Lamont Hinson

About this episode

Lamont Hinson discusses Fayetteville's winter events and energy-saving tips with Dan.

“Comfort sometimes comes at a cost—especially from 6 to 9 AM.” PWC’s Lamont Hinson joins Dan with a timely Fayetteville winter update: Rotary Christmas Parade plans, Christmas in the Park at Arnette Park, and Holiday Lights at Segra Stadium. Then we get practical—how winter peak hours (6–9 AM) and thermostat choices affect your bill, plus tools in PWC’s Energy Resource Center (calculators for TOU, space heaters, EVs, insulation, and water heating). Lamont previews Squirrel Appreciation Day (animal interference is outage #1) and explains why PWC opposes the interbasin transfer request from Fuquay-Varina—and how locals can submit comments to NC DEQ. It’s hyper-local, action-ready, and just in time for cold mornings.
