Summer Storms Threaten North Georgia Monday Evening
22 Jun
Summary
- Strong to severe storms are expected to develop Monday evening.
- Heavy rain and damaging wind gusts are the main threats.
- A brief spin-up tornado is possible, especially in northwest Georgia.
The first full day of summer on Monday is set to bring a significant shift in weather for north Georgia. After a dry start, conditions will deteriorate as the evening progresses, with a heightened risk of strong to severe thunderstorms developing.
These storms pose primary threats of heavy rainfall and damaging wind gusts across the region. A more localized, yet serious, concern includes the potential for a brief spin-up tornado, with the greatest likelihood anticipated in northwest Georgia.
The line of storms is forecast to move out of the area by Tuesday morning. Residents can anticipate a temporary reprieve before another chance for storms returns later in the week.
