Colder air to stick around this week; potential for wintry mix

ATLANTA — Most Georgians woke up to temperatures in the 30s on Christmas Day.

Severe Weather Team 2 Meteorologist Brian Monahan said it was the coldest Christmas in about 7 years.

For the last couple years, high temperatures were in the mid-70s on Christmas Day.

The high temperatures for this year will be just in the 40s.

The day will have a mix of clouds and sun.

While parts of the country received a white Christmas, the cold weather is expected to move to north Georgia.

Beginning Wednesday, we’ll be watching developing moisture in the Gulf of Mexico that could run into some very cold air over our area.

Wintry mix could be possible for some areas in north Georgia on Thursday and Friday.
