Severe Threat Second Day in a Row

Portions of West Georgia is in a risk for severe thunderstorms again this afternoon. Threats are 60 MPH winds and isolated tornadoes with the strongest cells. Here is my forecast for this afternoon, valid until 9 PM. We will have you updated on all severe weather wordings, as we are still in Severe Weather Awareness Mode.

Slight Risk for Severe Weather

Good afternoon,
First of all, I would like to notify you that I created a Facebook page for GA Weather Plus. Please go and like it! https://www.facebook.com/gaweatherplus
Second, we are looking at a major rain storm for our area combined with t-storms all the way through Tuesday. The SPC put our western counties in a Slight Risk of severe weather for tonight. Here is a map with the counties included:

We are now in severe weather awareness mode and all severe weather watches/warnings will be posted on our Facebook page as they come into the GA Weather Plus Forecast Center. 

I will have an update tonight with some maps perhaps for this rainstorm and possible severe storms for the next few days.

**WINTER WEATHER ALERT**

Good Monday evening,
As I mentioned on Saturday, we are going to see a system around Thanksgiving. It si very likely now that we will see winter weather. In fact, there is a Winter Weather Advisory and a Freezing Rain Advisory out for portions of North Georgia. The advisories are for tonight, because there will be a lot of sleet in North Georgia and definitely some ice accumulations up to 0.1 inch. in the higher elevations above 2000 feet.
For tomorrow, we have a Flood Watch in effect, because a lot of North Georgia will see 3-4 inches of rain. We  may see flash flooding too. Eventually, this will start turning to snow tomorrow night, so I am expecting a new Winter Weather Advisory issued tomorrow. Areas above 2000 feet will change to snow tomorrow night earliest, and eventually by the late night/early morning hours, all of North Georgia will be seeing snow showers. Although rural areas and low-elevation areas will see minimal accumulations of up to a trace, areas above 2000 feet will likely see between 0.5 and 1.5 inches of snow. I will have a snow map out tomorrow. After the system exits, it will be very windy and cold for Wednesday, with highs in the 30s and 40s for much of Georgia. This cold air will continue into Thanksgiving Day, with highs staying in the 40s and low 50s.
Meanwhile, here is a map of the current advisories/watches across Georgia.

Weak Storms Popping Up

Even though most of the line is becoming weaker as it starts entering Dade County, GA, more storms have popped up across Alabama and Georgia. There might be some weather advisories with these, even though I do not think there will be anything severe. Here is the radar image.
