Winter Storm Watch across Georgia beginning Tuesday. How much snow is in the forecast?
Inaugurations moved by weather: Trump joins the list
From blizzards to downpours, weather has shaped inaugurations. Donald Trump’s ceremony is the second time cold temperatures have moved the president-elect inside.
Ever since earlier this month, Georgians have been worried about another winter storm coming in. The forecasts are not looking favorable in this respect.
The National Weather Service issued a Winter Storm Watch on Monday for most of the central and southern Georgia areas. It will go into effect Tuesday afternoon through Wednesday morning.
How much snow will Georgia get?
Snowfall projections are varied depending on where you live. In the Atlanta and Athens area, there’s a 40% chance of snow Tuesday after 1 p.m. with less than half an inch accumulation.
In Macon, there’s a chance of flurries before 11 a.m. Tuesday then snow is likely after 4 p.m. The chance of precipitation is 60% with less than half an inch of snow accumulation.
Savannah is looking at snow and sleet Tuesday, becoming all snow after 1 a.m. The chance of precipitation is 90% with 1-2 inches of snow accumulation. There’s also a 30% chance of snow showers on Wednesday before 10 a.m.
Will Georgia get ice?
Current ice accumulation maps by NWS indicate the major concern is in the south with less than one-tenth inch in the Albany area, up to 0.25 inches in the Valdosta and Savannah areas.
Will it freeze in Georgia?
While areas like Augusta have not been issued a winter storm watch, whether snow or ice is expected, freezing or near-freezing conditions are practically everywhere. Here’s a look at some of the incoming temperatures:
- Athens: Tuesday high of 37 degrees, low of 17 degrees. Wednesday high of 38, low of 18.
- Atlanta: Tuesday high of 34 degrees, low of 16 degrees. Wednesday high of 36, low of 21.
- Augusta: Tuesday high of 40 degrees, low of 22 degrees. Wednesday high of 38, low of 20.
- Macon: Tuesday high of 40 degrees, low of 19 degrees. Wednesday high of 41, low of 19.
- Savannah: Tuesday high of 40 degrees, low of 27 degrees. Wednesday high of 37, low of 25.
