Snow is winding down across metro Atlanta and north Georgia, leaving behind significant accumulation in some areas.

ATLANTA — Accumulating snow arrives overnight and Saturday morning at the beginning of a prolonged cold snap to the region, during which much of north Georgia will spend 60+ hours at or below freezing.

Bad weather postponed or canceled many anti-ICE protests in metro Atlanta on Saturday, but a few protestors on both sides of the issue turned up anyway.

The winter storm warning areas have the potential to see up to 2-4 inches of snow. The winter weather advisory areas have the potential to see up to 1-2 inches of snow.

Snow totals will be highest in northeast Georgia, where 6"+ is possible in higher elevations. For Atlanta and the inner metro, 1 to 3 inches of snow is possible.

A Winter Ice Warning has been issued for the Atlanta metro area, and the forecast currently calls for 1/4 to 1/2 inch of ice to form between Saturday afternoon and Sunday evening. Despite that, officials at the world's busiest airport believe planes will be able to take off and land over the weekend.

Atlanta's weather: sun and snow flurries expected this week, with temperatures varying from highs near 48 to lows around 14 degrees.
