Georgia residents are waking up to biting cold this weekend, with temperatures plunging into the 20s and 30s. A low-pressure system moving off the Northeast coast has left the state under a blanket of cold air. Highs will struggle to hit the low 50s, and a breeze could make it feel even colder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Georgia is facing a quick dose of winter before a gradual warm-up as Christmas approaches. While the weekend will feel more like January, milder weather later in the week will give holiday plans a green light. Those hoping for snow are out of luck, but sunny skies and warmer temperatures make this forecast a win for anyone traveling or hosting celebrations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n[mailerlite_form form_id=5]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
