Freeze Warning Issued for Banks County
On November 9, 2025, the Georgia Emergency Management and Homeland Security Agency (GEMA/HS), along with the National Weather Service in Peachtree City, issued a Freeze Warning and Freeze Watch for Banks County and surrounding areas as temperatures are expected to drop significantly. Forecasters warn of sub-freezing temperatures ranging from 20 to 27 degrees across north and central Georgia, with even lower temperatures anticipated in the elevated regions of northeast Georgia. A widespread hard freeze is expected, beginning with a Freeze Warning from 1 a.m. to 10 a.m. Monday, followed by a Freeze Watch from Monday evening through Tuesday morning. These conditions pose risks to crops, sensitive vegetation, and unprotected outdoor plumbing. Residents are urged to take action now by protecting tender plants from the cold and safeguarding water pipes by wrapping, draining, or allowing them to drip slowly.
