From Baldwin County Emergency Management/Homeland Security Agency:
This is a heads-up going into the weekend about a potentially significant severe weather event across the Southeast on Tuesday. Since this is still upwards of 4 days away, the forecast may evolve over the weekend. However, models have been consistent in showing a potentially significant severe weather event over the past few days, increasing the level of confidence and concern as we approach next week.
A powerful low-pressure system will push a warm front into Georgia overnight Monday, setting the stage for the development of supercells and a squall line ahead of a cold front on Tuesday. The timing for severe thunderstorms will be Tuesday morning through late Tuesday afternoon across all of South Georgia and most of Central Georgia. Although severe weather will be possible statewide, a wedge pattern will be in place across much of North Georgia, limiting the severe potential.
Damaging thunderstorm winds and several tornadoes will be possible across the Southeast on Tuesday, with a few potentially strong (EF-2+) tornadoes. Even non-thunderstorm winds could gust 40+ mph, and a Wind Advisory may be considered for much of Georgia on Tuesday. 2-4 inches of rainfall accumulation is forecast across Georgia between Monday evening and Tuesday evening. Heavy rainfall could lead to some localized flooding, but widespread flooding issues are not anticipated.
Georgia. awful place to live as far as weather. Constant weather surprises. Moving out this state because weather is always unpredictable. I think the weather in Georgia is scarey. . Heat unbearable in summer, winters no snow, but tornado warnings in the winter. Seasons are weird, No spring, unbearable heated summers, little fall, winters are all over the place, one day warm, next day freezing. Heading north where the weather is so much better. Up north you actually have seasons. Bye.
I can’t stand it either! I agree.
What about the coming week has in store for Augusta Georgia?
