Yeesh... Good luck, Georgia. And everyone else.

NWS Atlanta

Probability of Winter Weather Impacts this Weekend

A major winter storm will traverse the Eastern U.S over the weekend! Significant impacts from ice and snow are anticipated in Georgia.

What Is Still In Question

How far south will the ice and snow occur?

The precise timing, location and amount of the ice and snow of each precipitation type?

What You Can Do Now

Consider how your family would stay safe if youlose power or the ability to travel for several days.

Ensure your family has multiple days of food and medication on hand.

@ai6yr We are supposed to get upwards of 2 feet of snow... in the Piedmont of NC. This is essentially unheard of and after Helene with much of our power and water infrastructure still bandaided with temporary repairs I am expecting an absolute disaster.

@ai6yr Even if we get the "best case scenario" of all the models I have seen we will still have at least an inch or more of ice and probably 6-8 inches of snow. I hope people are actually prepared and preparing for this storm because it could be a life or death situation across the Carolinas. Power lines here start failing around a half inch of ice in my experience even prior to Helene.
