SUNDAY MORNING UPDATE: Snow is on the way for many people south and east of the city, with flurries or even a snow shower as far north as the southern Metro.

Overnight, the Winter Weather Advisory was expanded north and westward to include the Athens area and over to LaGrange. It technically expires at 1 PM, but I expect everyone to be done with winter weather in our area by 11 AM.

The second image here is our snow forecast. This considers all of the recent model runs and what's most reasonable for us this morning. Please remember, it's going to be a very narrow cut-off line. One spot could quickly see a half-inch while 10 miles up the road sees nothing.

We're tracking it through the morning on Good Day Atlanta! Join Kaitlyn Pratt FOX 5 and me now!
