Sorta kinda ice storm & freezing fog
The Advisories continue for most of northeast & north central Georgia, until 10 AM for Cherokee, Pickens & Gilmer Counties, and 2 PM for counties Gwinnett, Rockdale, Forsyth & east.
The area today to get frozen patches on the roads are in an area east of here at least until early afternoon, while the more favorable area to get frozen stuff is east of here. The current winter weather statement for City of Atlanta and the west and south metro area lasts until 4 PM...tbd if we get another after that.
NEXT STORM: Sunday afternoon there is a good chance of snow north of a Rome to Canton to Gainesville line...we shall see if this moves closer to us. At least the cold air is in place now so that if we do get some winter weather it is more likely to stick.
CURRENTLY: as of 8:30 AM, it's 32 with freezing rain & freezing fog. It feels like 24.
Westlake goes back to school today after 2 days off on a 2 hour delay. Another round of snow/ice is supposed to hit there tomorrow or Saturday (the same stuff we may get).
9:45 AM UPDATE: The freezing temperatures/weather is roughly north of here, including metro Atlanta.
3 PM UPDATE: I was going to link to an article about the fact we may get 1-2" of snow in the north suburbs, but as soon as I was to do that, weather forecasters have no downplayed the threat & saying we're just going to get cold rain...I sure hope they are wrong.
Also, Southlake Carroll, who we lost to in the Super 5A Football state championships last month, got ranked #1 team of the year...that's not so bad!
