What happened

The episode as NWS FFC wrote it up.

A strong Arctic cold front sent temperatures to their lowest level in several years across north and central Georgia. As the cold front moved through temperatures dropped through the 20s during the day and into the teens by evening accompanied with northwest winds of 25 to 35 mph with higher gusts. By midnight several locations were already below 10 degrees. Minimum temperatures bottomed out in the single digits over nearly all of north Georgia Friday morning, January 24th, with lows mostly in the mid teens in central Georgia. Hiawassee in Towns county recorded the statewide low with -2 degrees F. Some locations in north Georgia failed to rise above the freezing mark for slightly over two days. Several county school districts across the north part of the state were closed on the 23rd and/or 24th because of the extreme cold
