ATLANTA -- A Winter Storm Watch is now in effect for Jackson, Madison, Paulding, Cobb, North Fulton, Gwinnett, Barrow, Haralson, Carroll, Douglas, South Fulton, and Dekalb which includes Atlanta.
The winter storms watch is in effect for Tuesday morning through Wednesday afternoon. The main threat for this area will be snow which could develop during the afternoon. ½ to an inch possible through Wednesday morning.
The NWS has issued a winter storm watch for central and South Georgia. It's from late morning Tuesday into Wednesday. With the potential for the moisture to move a little more to the north, the NWS has now included some additional counties north of I-20 in the watch area. Here are the counties:
BALDWIN, BIBB, BLECKLEY, BUTTS, CHATTAHOOCHEE, CLARKE, CLAYTON, COWETA, CRAWFORD, CRISP, DOOLY, FAYETTE, GLASCOCK, GREENE, HANCOCK, HARRIS, HEARD, HENRY, HOUSTON, JASPER, JEFFERSON, JONES, LAMAR, MACON, MARION, MERIWETHER, MONROE, MORGAN, MUSCOGEE, NEWTON, OCONEE, OGLETHORPE, PEACH, PIKE, PULASKI, PUTNAM, ROCKDALE, SCHLEY, SPALDING, STEWART, SUMTER, TALBOT, TALIAFERRO, TAYLOR, TROUP, TWIGGS, UPSON, WALTON, WARREN, WASHINGTON, WEBSTER, WILKES, WILKINSON
We have plenty of cold air spilling in again late Monday into Tuesday. At the same time, moisture from the Gulf starts pushing north into south and central Georgia on Tuesday and Wednesday. That moisture will begin to change to sleet and snow in the watch area. The way it looks now, Atlanta up to north Fulton, Cobb and Gwinnett could see a dusting of snow Tuesday night into Wednesday morning. Areas just south of I-20 could see up to an inch. Snow accumulations could max out at 2-4" with the possibility of ice in central and south Georgia.
The computer models are beginning to come together on this potential winter weather event. The Weather Information Zone meteorologists are pouring over each new model when it comes in. We will continue to fine tune this forecast and have updates on the impacts as it develops.
