A few more showers around today with clouds increasing. All of that ahead of the winter storm that arrives for this weekend.

It’s a First Alert Day through Saturday morning for the continued very cold conditions. Wind chills of -20 to -30 are likely through much of this time, though they should begin to improve later in the morning on Saturday and especially by afternoon. That’s why the First Alert Day expires by then.

ICE STORM WARNINGS have been issued for all CSRA counties near and north of I-20 from 1 PM Saturday until 1 PM Monday. We likely won’t see freezing rain start in the CSRA until Saturday evening.

While the forecast remains locked in on rain for most of the area, there are still some very real concerns about the possibility of freezing rain in north and far eastern counties.

Friday is a First Alert 6 Weather Day due to this dangerously cold air set to move in. You can find more details as to how the day plays out here. Beyond Friday the cold air will now struggle to move east all weekend so we’re trending towards a very cold weekend as of now.

Not as bitter as the last couple of nights, but still cold enough at night for some frost near & west of I-95 across SE Ga. & NE Florida
