Severe Storms Expected to Hit Metro Atlanta Today with High Winds and Tornado Risk

• Share on:

Fast-moving storms are expected to sweep across Georgia today, driven by a cold front moving from the southern Appalachians. The storms, which began in northwest Georgia around 8 a.m., are anticipated to reach metro Atlanta by noon, with the greatest threat being damaging winds and the possibility of large hail or a brief tornado. After the storms pass, the region will experience dryer, warmer weather with sunny skies returning this evening and a pleasant weekend forecast.
