Atlanta, GA – The National Weather Service in Peachtree City has issued a Winter Weather Advisory for portions of northeast Georgia, in effect through Tuesday morning. Forecasters expect snowfall totals between 1 and 3 inches, particularly at elevations above 2,000 feet in counties such as Murray, Fannin, Gilmer, Union, Towns, Dawson, Lumpkin, and White.
According to the National Weather Service, most of the affected region will see around one inch of snow, though some mountain peaks could receive locally higher totals. The advisory urges drivers to use caution as slick and icy conditions may develop on roads and bridges overnight, especially in shaded or untreated areas.
Snowfall is expected to taper off after midnight, but some slick spots could linger into Tuesday morning’s commute. Areas outside the advisory zone across North Georgia may see light flurries but are not expected to experience hazardous travel conditions.
Travelers heading through the Blue Ridge and Brasstown Bald areas are advised to check local forecasts and road conditions before heading out.
