Breezy northwest winds and a sharp drop in temperatures are impacting Chattooga County and much of Northwest Georgia today, with colder air expected to linger through Monday.

The National Weather Service has issued a Wind Advisory from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. EST Sunday as a tight pressure gradient between a developing Nor’easter and high pressure over the Plains drives strong northwest winds across Georgia.
