Georgia expecting another round of snow, but could Macon get a dusting?

The Macon area could finally see a little snow after winter weather skirted Middle Georgia earlier this season.

The National Weather Service expects light accumulations for parts of Middle Georgia through Wednesday morning. There was a 40 percent chance of rain and snow late Tuesday night, and a 30 percent chance of light snow Wednesday.

A strong cold front is bringing much lower temperatures — and the chance for a dusting of snow for about three dozen counties across the midstate.

A winter weather advisory is in effect until 10 a.m. Wednesday and includes a large swath of Middle Georgia, including counties as far south as Crisp.

Up to 1 inch of snow is expected in counties including Bibb, Houston, Peach, Jones, Twiggs, Baldwin, Laurens, Putnam, Hancock, Washington, Wilkinson, Macon, Bleckley, Dooly, Pulaski, Wilcox and Dodge.

Monroe County could get 2 inches.

Light snow accumulations could cause travel difficulties, and any precipitation that falls could linger in the cold.

Light snow starting Tuesday evening is expected to last into early Wednesday morning. The day will bring wind gusts near 25 mph, with a high of 35 degrees in Macon.

The weather advisories could change, so the Weather Service advises checking for forecast updates.
