The National Weather Service says Georgia may see the coldest weather of the winter this week when arctic air heads
southward and two cold front bring temperatures below normal.
Meteorologist Stephen Konarik says residents in the Atlanta area could see temperatures in the high teens by the end of the week. Konarik says the first blast of Canadian air will push through the metro Atlanta area Monday night. The forecast calls for highs Tuesday only in the mid 40s.
On Thursday night, another cold front will move through, bringing overnight lows in the teens.
