Atlanta, GA – A Freeze Warning is in effect for several counties across north-central, northeast, northwest, and west-central Georgia, including major cities like Atlanta, Rome, and Dalton, as sub-freezing temperatures are expected early Wednesday morning.
According to the National Weather Service, temperatures could drop as low as 30°F between 5 AM and 10 AM EDT Wednesday, April 9, 2025. Areas such as Franklin, Calhoun, Dawsonville, and Carrollton will experience the coldest conditions.
This cold snap could have significant impacts on agriculture and infrastructure. Frost and freeze conditions are likely to damage sensitive plants, crops, and unprotected outdoor plumbing. Residents are urged to take precautionary measures, such as covering tender plants or bringing them indoors, and insulating pipes that are vulnerable to freezing.
