Good afternoon, everyone. This is Timothy Hayes with the Torcon WX Team, coming to you from the Torcon Weather Team Southeast Region Weather Center. Lets talk about this cold weather for a second. This new Artic Blast Is gonna usher in some of the coldest air yet this season. The National Weather Service in Peachtree City has issued Extreme Cold Warnings and Cold weather advisory's for a large swath of the South including most of Georgia. I can't remember the last time that office has issued either of those types of advisory's and warnings, it's deff been a while.
This record-breaking cold air has begun surging into our region and its bringing with it dangerously low temperatures. We're talking wind chills potentially plunging to -10°F or lower in parts of North Georgia – that's frigid! Freeze Warnings are even extending as far south as Gainesville, Florida.
Now, the big question on everyone's mind: will it snow? The answer is yes, for many of us.
A Winter Storm Watch is in effect for a large portion of the Southeast, including North Central and South Georgia, Southern Alabama, Mississippi, the Florida Panhandle, Louisiana, and Eastern Texas.
Snow accumulations are expected, with most areas likely seeing anywhere from a dusting to 1-3 inches. However, some locations could experience heavier snowfall.
Folks, this is some serious cold air coming into the Southeast. I don't know about you but I am not made for this kind of cold so you need to protect Yourself: Bundle up! Dress in layers, cover all exposed skin, and limit your time outdoors, especially during the coldest periods. Be mindful of the signs of hypothermia and frostbite.
Protect Your Home: Insulate exposed pipes, let faucets drip slightly to prevent freezing, and most importantly, bring your pets indoors. Even if your dog has a well-insulated doghouse, it won't be enough to withstand these extreme temperatures.
Once the snow starts falling travel safely!
If you must travel, be prepared. Have an emer
