Freeze warning in North Metro Atlanta!
An extended period of sub-freezing temperatures is here — with lows dropping into the teens across Alpharetta, Roswell, Canton, Woodstock, Suwanee, Buford, and Johns Creek over the next 10 days.
Starting Thursday night through next week, our area faces heavy ice, freezing rain, and snow probabilities, followed by some of the coldest overnight lows we’ve seen this season.
Even if it warms slightly during the day, pipes can freeze and burst overnight when temps dip below 32°F — leading to costly water damage.
That’s why PuroClean North Metro Atlanta is issuing this alert and sharing a few essential prevention steps.
🧊 Forecast Highlights (Alpharetta Example)
| Day | Forecast | Overnight Low | Conditions |
|---|---|---|---|

| Fri | 41° / 48° | 🌧️ | 60% rain / slush |

(Forecast varies slightly across Roswell, Woodstock, Canton, Suwanee, Buford, and Johns Creek — all remain below freezing overnight.)
🔧 How to Prepare Before Temperatures Drop
These simple steps can save you thousands in repairs:
✅ Let faucets drip overnight to keep water moving.
✅ Open cabinet doors under sinks to circulate warm air.
✅ Keep your thermostat at 65°F or higher, even if you’re away.
✅ Disconnect hoses and cover all outdoor spigots.
✅ Insulate exposed pipes in attics, basements, and crawlspaces.
✅ Know where your main shut-off valve is before an emergency hits.
🧰 Pro Tip: Wrap pipes with towels, foam sleeves, or even pool noodles for quick insulation.

🕒 Why Overnight Freezes Are Dangerous
Pipes rarely burst while they’re frozen — the real damage occurs as they thaw.
When ice inside expands, pressure builds, and as it melts, cracks release hundreds of gallons of water into your home.
That’s why we stay staffed around the clock during every cold front.
