Norcross Email Extravaganza Vol. 329
A weekly email for the young & forever young in Historic Norcross
DID YOU KNOW...?
(I’m sure this comes as no surprise…) A Winter Storm Warning is in effect for Gwinnett County from 7a today (Friday) through 7a Saturday. Forecasts are calling for up to 3 inches of snow and sleet, with ice accumulations of up to a third of an inch. Roads, bridges, and overpasses are expected to get slick, and ice on trees and power lines could lead to outages. If you need to head out, especially during today’s commute, take it slow and stay safe. Hopefully, we’ll see some sleds, snowmen, and plenty of winter fun around Norcross today!
