❄️ But First: This morning remains bitterly cold, with wind chills between 10 and 15 degrees in many spots. Hazardous road conditions persist, especially on less-traveled roads in central Georgia where patches of snow and ice remain. Drivers are urged to exercise caution.

☀️ What’s Happening Today:

  • Daytime: Partly sunny, with a high near 41 degrees. Northwest winds around 5 miles per hour.
  • Tonight: Mostly cloudy, with a low near 22 degrees and light winds.

🌤️ Looking Ahead:

  • Friday: Sunny and slightly warmer, with a high near 46 degrees. Gusts of up to 15 miles per hour are possible.
  • Saturday: Expect highs near 48 degrees under clear, sunny skies.
  • Sunday: A warming trend continues, with highs reaching 53 degrees. Clouds will increase into the evening, with a 30 percent chance of showers after midnight.

🚗 Take Action: If you’re heading out this morning, take it slow. Snow and ice patches on secondary roads could still cause problems, especially in shaded areas.
