Will we get snow? Well, that depends on the weather. Snow is tricky to predict because it depends on the depth of the cold air, when and where that air goes, whether there is moisture at the same time to produce the snow, and whether or not you wish hard enough — just kidding about that last part! I think it is likely that some people in the Southeast will see snow, especially at more northern locations and at higher elevations, but when and where that will occur is too soon to know. All I will say is that the pattern is promising for some of us to see some flakes.

An arctic blast is coming to Georgia, but will it actually snow?
