Every forecast across Athens & Gainesville,
highway-clear.

Every Georgia region shares one system — the same maps, the same live radar, the same climate record. Lake Lanier and Lake Hartwell make their own weather, and the Piedmont here is where the ice line usually stops. Gainesville has the deadliest tornado in Georgia's history on its record — 1936, more than 200 dead — and the spring severe season still runs this corridor every year, generally after dark and under the trees.
