Forsyth County experienced a low temperature on Tuesday in the single digits. The measurement of 4 degrees Fahrenheit was the coldest temperature in National Weather Service records for Cumming, which date back to 2001, edging the previous low of 6 degrees in January 2003. The bulk of weather-related emergency calls Tuesday came from pipes bursting, authorities said.
