ATLANTA - Winter weather gripped North Georgia on Friday, leaving behind snow, ice, and treacherous road conditions. As temperatures continue to plummet overnight, freezing rain and refreeze on roads pose significant hazards heading into the weekend.

Gov. Brian Kemp describes how the state of Georgia prepared for the winter storm, the challenges the winter weather may pose for residents and lessons Georgians learned from the snowstorm of 2014. Jan.

Georgians of a certain age remember two major winter events – the blizzard of 1993 and the "Snowjam" of 2014. The blizzard is called a one-in-a-lifetime event in the state, but 2014's debacle was blamed on state officials' failure to plan.

Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp and state officials give update on the response to the winter storm. Full 10 a.m. press conference.
