Not long after trick-or-treating winds down on Tuesday, the weather in the East Cobb area will be taking a very chilly turn for a few days.
The National Weather Service has issued a freeze watch for most of metro Atlanta and parts of North Georgia from late Tuesday evening until 10 a.m. Wednesday.
Sub-freezing lows are forecast for Wednesday, Thursday and Friday with highs from the mid-50s to low 60s during those days.
Frost and freeze conditions can kill crops and garden vegetation and damage unprotected outdoor plumbing. People with in-ground sprinkler systems should drain them and cover above-
ground pipes to protect them from freezing.
Pets also should be shielded from freeze conditions and brought inside.
High temperatures over the weekend will range from the high 60s to low 70s, also with sunshine. But the lows will still be colder than they have been‚ in the 40s into next week.
