Fulton County offices will be closed Tuesday in anticipation of winter weather.

The closure includes the Fulton County courthouse. Jurors scheduled for Tuesday should not report for duty.

Channel 2 Action News is predicting a wintry mix — and possible snow — Tuesday morning. Several school systems, including the Atlanta Public Schools, have already canceled classes for Tuesday.

With the Super Bowl in town on Sunday, the nation is paying close attention to how Atlanta handles the winter weather.
