A major blast of cold air is set to bring the Southeast its first widespread frost and freeze of autumn this weekend.

Cities including Atlanta and Raleigh could see lows near the freezing mark, while parts of northern Florida may experience their first frost. Garden flowers and vegetables are at risk, and residents are advised to move potted plants indoors.

Atlanta City Council Advances Resolution to Establish Office of Veterans Affairs

Atlanta City Council Advances Resolution to Establish Office of Veterans Affairs

The Atlanta City Council has advanced a resolution to establish a dedicated Office of Veterans and Military Affairs. This initiative, spearheaded by Atlanta City Councilman Jason Dozier, aims to centralize and coordinate essential services for the estimated 16,000 military veterans residing within the city limits. The resolution mandates that Mayor Andre Dickens' administration be given one year to secure the necessary funding and officially set up the office. This move comes after a municipal veterans commission, established in 2013 to address military needs, became dormant, having not met in five years due to a lack of designated personnel. Councilman Dozier highlighted that Georgia has the nation's fifth-largest active-duty military population, yet its capital city currently lacks an active operational hub for veterans, leading to a piecemeal approach to veteran support.
