ATLANTA -
TRACKING MORE DOWNPOURS AND LIGHTNING TODAY
Scattered showers and thunderstorms will continue throughout the day as we are tracking an area of low pressure to pass through the Ohio Valley that will drag a cold front through Georgia over the next 24 hours.
The biggest threat from today's storms will be intense, heavy rain and frequent lightning. It will be possible to get a repeat of yesterday's localized flash flooding. We'll be keeping an eye on it today.
While there may be a lull in the rain by late morning, numerous thunderstorms are expected in the afternoon and early evening.
Storms should wind down by 10pm tonight as some drier air filters into far north Georgia. This will set us up for drastically lower rainfall chances beginning Wednesday.
From Wednesday through the weekend, skies will generally be partly cloudy with highs in the mid to upper 80s. While thunderstorms chances are low each day, a stray pop-up afternoon storms cannot be ruled out any day through Monday of next week.
