Downtown Connector named the worst holiday accident hot spot

October 16, 2019 Atlanta: Morning commuters make their way in the rain south of 10th street on the connector downtown during the morning drive Wednesday, Oct. 16, 2019 with slick pavement and areas of fog. Before sunrise, visibility was down to less than a half-mile in metro Atlanta, Channel 2 meteorologist Eboni Deon said. Thursday morning, North Georgia will turn much cooler. “We will feel widespread 40s all across the area,” Deon said. “This is the coldest air we've seen so far this season. There are going to be a number of areas, at least right along the Tennessee and Georgia border, that will be dropping back into the 30s.” Deon expects to see morning lows in the 40s at least through Friday. Afternoon highs will be a bit more seasonable in the upper 60s and lower 70s through the end of the work week, she said, and it will stay dry.“But heading into the weekend, that’s when we are going to notice a lot of Gulf of Mexico moisture streaking northward, so with all that tropical moisture, rain chances move back in Saturday to Sunday.” Both days this weekend have a 40% chance of some showers and storms, according to Channel 2.
