State of Emergency declarations open up resources and relax rules related to storm response. Here's what is included in Kemp's state of emergency ahead of the storm
Gov. Brian Kemp announced a state of emergency for all Georgia counties Thursday ahead of a winter storm expected to dump snow and sleet onto the northern third of the state starting Saturday, potentially encasing the land in a layer of ice.
Georgia officials are urging residents to prepare now and stay off the roads as winter weather threatens ice, power outages, and dangerous travel conditions across the state.
