Although snowfall is projected to only be 1 to 3 inches in total (and upward of 4 inches toward the mountains), residents are still advised to stay off the roads. Those commuting to and from work Friday afternoon should stay alert when driving in wintry weather conditions.

As snow and ice hit the Atlanta metro area, GDOT ramped up efforts to clear roads, deploying 100 plows by Friday morning. Despite pre-treatment with brine, conditions are worsening, with multiple accidents reported.
