The National Weather Service has increased confidence that parts of central Georgia will see snow Sunday morning, with accumulations between half an inch and an inch and a half.
What’s Happening
A weather system moving across the Southeast Saturday night through Sunday will bring the potential for snow, rain, and a mix of both across parts of central and east Georgia, according to the National Weather Service office in Peachtree City.
Forecasters say snow totals between 0.5 and 1.5 inches are most likely, with a very low chance for localized totals of 2 to 3 inches.
What’s Still Uncertain
The northern edge of the precipitation area remains unclear.
Areas along and just north of the I-85 corridor — including parts of metro Atlanta — should continue monitoring forecasts, the weather service said.
Forecasters say differences between weather models make it difficult to predict exactly where snow will fall versus no precipitation on the north side of the system.
