The winter storm that swept through East Cobb on Friday, leaving snow and some freezing conditions gave plenty of families a chance to enjoy the outdoors.
Thanks to readers Tami McIntire and Catarina Kommer for the photos from their yards Sunday on what’s the last of a three-day snow holiday here for many. (You can send yours if you like, too, and we’ll add them to this post: editor@eastcobbnews.com).
With somewhat warmer temperatures in the forecast, activities that had been cancelled or postponed are returning to normal.
The Cobb County School District sent this message to the public Sunday afternoon:
“All Cobb County School District schools are fully operational and will be open on a normal schedule on Monday, January 13th.
“We look forward to seeing all students in school and on time!”
The sun came out on Sunday and highs crept up into the low 40s, enough for some of snow/sleet to melt.
It’s expected to freeze back again Sunday night, with lows back in the 20s, so there are continued road hazards in some spots.
Cobb government said Sunday afternoon that “icy spots could persist in shaded areas and could re-form Monday morning. Cobb DOT will respond to calls as they arrive, but please use caution.”
Cobb DOT has a maintenance work desk at 770-528-1600 for routine issues to be handed during regular business hours, and via mobile app: https://seeclickfix.com/cobb-county.
