⚠️ Black Ice ⚠️As many roads in North Georgia are unsafe or impassable at this time, avoid driving unless necessary. ❄Staying off icy, blocked roads helps keep you and first responders safe. It only takes one patch of slick ice to create a dangerous situation. Let's keep our community safe by staying off hazardous roads! 🤝Be sure to follow guidance from local officials. Stay informed, warm, and safe! 💙 #WinterPreparedness #EmergencyPreparedness #District2PublicHealth ... See MoreSee Less
