Special Weather Statement
Issued: 1:46 PM Jan. 18, 2026 – National Weather Service
...RAIN POSSIBLY MIXING WITH OR CHANGING TO SNOW LATER TODAY... Widespread rain will impact the region today an area of low pressure strengthens off the Southeast U.S. coast. The rain could mix with or change to all snow later today as colder air filters in the region behind the departing storm system. The risk for any snow will be greatest along and west of a line from Reidsville to Statesboro and Allendale. This includes communities such as Metter, Millen, Emmalane, Hilltonia, Sylvania, Hopeulikit, Martin and Ulmer. Widespread light to moderate snow is already impacting much of central and southwest Georgia where accumulations have been reported. While significant snow accumulations are unlikely at this time, some very minor accumulations will be possible from mid-morning today into early afternoon hours. Accumulations, should they occur, would most likely be confined to grassy areas and other elevated surfaces such as roof tops. Isolated slick spots could also occur on bridges and overpasses, but significant travel impacts are not expected at this time given temperatures will largely remain above freezing. Any snow that accumulates will quickly melt once the snow ends, thus limiting its impact. Should the risk for accumulating snowfall increase, a Winter Weather Advisory may be issued for the area. PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS... If you plan to drive or walk, remain alert for slick spots on paved surfaces. Slow your driving speed and use care when walking on sidewalks, driveways or parking lots. Slips and falls constitute a leading cause of injuries during winter weather. &&
