After two doses of severe winter weather, some warmer temperatures will be coming to Cobb over the next week.
For the first time since Sunday, the high on Wednesday was above freezing—around 36 degrees.
But overnight lows for the next few nights will continue to be very cold.
On Wednesday night, lows are forecast to fall into the teens, meaning what precipitation fell in Cobb will freeze over.
The National Weather Service in Atlanta is continuing a hazardous weather outlook that calls for wind chills of 10-15 degrees Wednesday night in parts of Georgia. A cold weather advisory has been issued for parts of central Georgia, along a line roughly connecting LaGrange to Barnesville to Warrenton.
Local lows through the the weekend also will stay around the freezing mark for much of north Georgia and Cobb.
The sun returned to Cobb on Wednesday, as daytime highs will push into the 40s through Sunday.
Cobb government returned to normal operations Wednesday, and Cobb schools operated on a two-hour delay.
Cobb DOT said there were few roads that were impacted by the snow/ice that hit central Georgia hard, and spread to areas of eastern metro Atlanta.
But that bad weather line stopped just short of Cobb County.
Milder weather will gradually return to the Cobb area by early next week, with highs popping back up into the 50s starting on Tuesday.
