Severe weather forecast for much of Georgia Friday. What to know
As Georgia residents recover from Tuesday's storms, which brought heavy rains and damaging winds across several parts of the state, more severe weather forecast for the end of the week.
An AccuWeather forecast shows that much of central and south Georgia is likely to experience severe thunderstorms.
"There will be another threat for severe storms over the Gulf Coast Thursday night into Friday with the next storm," said AccuWeather Meteorologist Elizabeth Danco. "Flooding rainfall and hail can occur with any of these thunderstorms."
We welcome the quiet weather both today and Thursday 🌤️
However, this will be short-lived as another low pressure system capable of bringing another round of severe weather to the region will move through on Friday (1/12). More information to come 🗒️#gawxpic.twitter.com/yzJtSVMlHH— NWS Atlanta (@NWSAtlanta) January 10, 2024
When is the next round of severe storms expected to hit Georgia?
Friday's storms have the potential of bringing tornadoes, damaging winds, large hail and isolated heavy rainfall, the National Weather Service said in a tweet. Wind gusts could exceed 40 mph.
The storms are developing out of a cold front approaching the Southeast Friday and a warm front moving north out of the Gulf of Mexico.
