ATLANTA — Metro Atlanta inhabitants, snatch your umbrellas and close those windows. Dispersed showers and tempests are advancing across Georgia, for certain tempests expected to conceivably reinforce into the evening.
Tempest action moved into North Georgia Wednesday morning. A portion of that blustery climate might advance toward Metro Atlanta’s front entryway by Wednesday evening. As we approach the short-term, the opportunities for serious climate will keep on expanding.
The Storm Prediction Center has given a level two danger out of a complete five for Metro Atlanta and all through North Georgia. While harming winds are the fundamental concern, the chance of a secluded twister can not be precluded.
The storms are expected to linger throughout the night and into Thursday morning, possibly affecting morning Atlanta commutes.
