The wider storm
Very cold air remain entrenched across the southeastern states as a deep surface low developed in the lower Mississippi Valley and swept northeast across the southern Appalachians. A wintry mix of some freezing rain and sleet, but mostly snow, covered north Georgia with snow flurries extending as far south as central Georgia. Strong pressure gradient winds associated with this low pressure system produced northwest winds 20 to 25 MPH with gusts of 30 to 40 MPH across north and central Georgia during the day on the 23rd.
