HABERSHAM COUNTY, Ga. — After severe winter weather across north Georgia, roads are still a risky situation for drivers.
According to Triple Team Traffic, multiple parts of north Georgia are still icy and trucks are still treating interstates across the region.
Officials in Habersham County said they are continuing recovery efforts, with 115 roads impacted by downed trees.

GDOT is urging Georgia drivers and residents to stay cautions while refreezing remains a threat through the day on Monday.
The agency said extremely cold temperatures continue to pose hazards for drivers and the refreezing that is expected may create black ice, especially on bridges, overpasses, shaded areas and elevated roadways.
GDOT crews remain on the roads for road treatment operations, spreading salt and treating hot spots.
Drivers are urged to be mindful of crews working along interstates and state routes, asking them to drive below the speed limit and move a lane over when possible.
