Pop-up thunderstorms are in full swing this afternoon across much of Eastern and Central Georgia. Given the nature of these storms, there will be some 'winner's' today and some that may not see anything. However, given the numerous outdoor festivities and activities that are ongoing through the weekend, please be sure to remain weather aware and seek shelter in the event a thunderstorm moves into your area.
Thunderstorms that develop through late this evening will be capable of producing gusty winds up to 60 MPH, small hail, and locally heavy rainfall.
⚡️Lightning can strike up to 10 miles away from a storm, so even if you don't see rain, you can still be in harm's way!
⚡️NO place outside is safe during a thunderstorm.
⚡️Whether you're spending the day at the beach, the pool, a graduation party, or sporting event, if you see clouds beginning to form vertically, thunderstorms are likely beginning to develop and that's your cue to head indoors!
