Hall County, GA – Drivers across Hall County are seeing improving road conditions Monday, but officials warn winter weather dangers are not over yet, especially on neighborhood streets and less-traveled roads.
According to the Hall County Sheriff’s Office, traffic increased through the morning hours, and motorists have largely used caution while traveling. While most major roadways are now drivable, many subdivision streets remain icy and potentially dangerous, particularly in shaded areas.
Officials credited Hall County Public Works crews for working “tirelessly” to clear fallen trees and treat icy intersections. Authorities said fallen trees blocking roadways have been minimal as of midday Monday and are being addressed quickly as they are reported.
A quick weather update from the sheriff’s office shows cold conditions will continue. Monday’s forecast calls for sunny but cold weather, with a high near 32 degrees. Winds around 15 mph, with gusts up to 30 mph, may further impact travel conditions.
Tonight, skies are expected to remain clear, but temperatures are forecast to drop sharply to around 11 degrees. Winds of 5 to 10 mph, with gusts up to 20 mph, could contribute to refreezing on roads where melting occurs during daylight hours.
Officials cautioned that these conditions mean Hall County is “not quite out of the woods yet.” Any moisture left on roadways could refreeze overnight, creating slick spots during the late evening and early Tuesday morning commute.
Motorists are urged to slow down, avoid unnecessary travel if possible, and remain alert for icy patches—especially on bridges, hills, and neighborhood streets. Residents are encouraged to stay tuned for additional updates later this evening.
