Georgia Braces for Arctic Blast and Snow Showers

Georgia is bracing for a weekend of bone-chilling temperatures as multiple waves of Arctic air are set to move through the state. Following a brief reprieve Friday afternoon, residents can expect a significant drop in temperatures, with lows plunging into the 20s and highs struggling to break the 40-degree mark by Sunday.

Forecasters anticipate the possibility of snow across various parts of Georgia this weekend. While confidence levels are still moderate, predictions suggest up to a half-inch of snow could fall on the state's highest peaks in the early hours of Saturday. The following morning, Middle and South Georgia may see up to a quarter-inch of snowfall.

Although the immediate Metro Atlanta area is less likely to witness a winter spectacle of snow, the region will still be subjected to very cold conditions. The cold snap serves as a reminder of winter's power, urging residents to prepare for the harsh weather expected.
