LIVE Severe Weather Team 2 continuing coverage tracking the snow and showing you the impacts across metro Atlanta and north Georgia, on Channel 2 Action News.
Severe Weather Team 2 Meteorologist Brian Monahan says we will see the biggest impacts from this system the farther east you go. Between 3-6 inches of snow is possible over our eastern counties. Farther west, impacts will quickly tail off back toward the Alabama state line, but there will still be some accumulating snow.

Channel 2’s Darryn Moore is live at the GDOT salt barn in Forsyth County.
GDOT spokesperson Natalie Dale says they were successful in clearing roads during the recent ice storm because so many people stayed off the roads. They are urging people to do the same with the snow.
She says this snow will be easier to plow and remove from roads. But Dale says the storm is expected to hit more areas, making it more labor-intensive.
