We took a great day trip out to see Fontana Dam. It was unseasonably warm for December (upper 60's+ F). NC has been experiencing a severe drought. You can see in the pictures that the reservoir is drastically low. http://www.ncdrought.org/ You can see from the link that the area where the dam is located is classified in the red 'D3-Extreme Drought' zone. The Dam was very impressive and the pictures do not really convey the scale of it.
