The western boundary of Georgia doesn't follow any constant longitude.

-- At its southern end, in Lake Seminole on the Florida state line near Chattahoochee,
its longitude is about 84.8645 degrees W.

-- From there, it follows the Chattahoochee River north, all the way past Columbus to a point
between West Point GA and Lanett AL at about 85.1847 degrees W, where it leaves the river.

-- It then proceeds along a straight line aimed somewhat west of north, for about 148 miles,
to the place where the state lines of Georgia, Tennessee, and Alabama meet. The longitude
at that point is about 85.6051 degrees W.
