The National Weather Service has issued a freeze warning for Georgia, with sub-freezing temperatures expected on Wednesday night (Nov. 1).
Temperatures are expected to be around 34 in the metro Atlanta area when children head off to school Wednesday morning.
The freeze warning will be in effect from 2 a.m. on Wednesday night through Thursday morning.
The Northeast Georgia mountains are expected to dip to a low of 23, while other parts of Georgia are expected to experience temperatures as low as 25 and 27.
Residents are urged to bring pets indoors and sensitive plants and protect outdoor plumbing. To prevent freezing and possible bursting of outdoor water pipes, they should be wrapped, drained, or allowed to drip slowly. Those who have in-ground sprinkler systems should drain them and cover above ground pipes to protect them from freezing.
DeKalb County has announced warming centers that will be open during the freeze:
