Atlanta, GA – Residents across north and central Georgia are preparing for two consecutive nights of freezing temperatures, with some communities potentially dropping into the mid 20s by Sunday morning, November 15, 2026. The cold could threaten sensitive plants, outdoor plumbing and pets left without adequate shelter.
According to the National Weather Service in Peachtree City, a Freeze Warning and Frost Advisory are in effect for portions of Georgia Friday night, November 13, into Saturday morning, November 14.
Temperatures during the first round of cold weather are expected to range from the upper 20s to the middle 30s.
Areas under the Freeze Warning could experience lows around 29 to 32 degrees, while communities under the Frost Advisory may see temperatures between 33 and 35 degrees.
The affected region includes portions of the Atlanta metropolitan area and communities around Rome, Carrollton, LaGrange, Gainesville, Athens, Griffin, Columbus and Macon.
However, forecasters expect even colder conditions Saturday night into Sunday morning.
A second round of cold air could send temperatures into the middle 20s to lower 30s across much of north and central Georgia, with some locations potentially reaching 25 degrees.
The National Weather Service reports that a Freeze Warning and Freeze Watch are in effect for different portions of the region ahead of Sunday's colder conditions.
Temperatures this low could damage or kill sensitive vegetation, particularly plants that remain outdoors overnight.
Residents should bring vulnerable plants indoors, cover exposed vegetation and take steps to protect outdoor faucets and pipes from freezing.
Pet owners should also ensure animals have access to warm, protected shelter throughout both nights.
The coldest conditions are expected early Sunday morning, when widespread freezing temperatures could affect communities across the region.
Residents are encouraged to complete cold weather preparations before Friday evening and monitor updated forecasts as warning areas may change.
