After snow fell in parts of Atlanta and across Middle and South Georgia on Tuesday afternoon, a sheen of ice is now coating roads across the state.

The National Weather Service’s winter storm warning that included metro Atlanta expired at 7 a.m. Wednesday. But a cold weather advisory is in its place and encompasses the northern half of the state. The coast and South Georgia remain under the winter storm warning until noon.

Roads everywhere are dangerously slick and flights have been delayed at the Atlanta and Savannah airports. State officials warned the public to stay home and prepare for up to 48 hours of extreme cold that has brought snow to parts of Georgia that haven’t seen such a storm in nearly 40 years.

Here’s the latest on the extreme winter weather affecting the state.
