Metro Atlanta woke up Wednesday morning to yet another round of winter weather, which has forced cancellations and caused traffic headaches.
An average of half an inch to 1.5 inches fell across metro Atlanta with some isolated areas seeing up to three inches, according to Channel 2 Action News meteorologist Brian Monahan.
4.7" of snow so far this season at #ATL (after 2.3" at the airport today). That's now ahead of the amount of snow we saw in the winter of 2013-2014 (4.6") #StormWatchon2
