The National Weather Service has trimmed back its Severe Thunderstorm Watch to cover mainly central Georgia through 8 PM Tuesday. Damaging wind gusts, heavy rainfall, localized flash flooding, and frequent lightning will remain threats this evening.
Severe weather briefly swept into Northeast Georgia shortly after 12 noon on Tuesday. The storm system brought with it hail and high winds. Taylor Bacon captured video of a hail storm as it passed over Cleveland, Georgia.
Scattered thunderstorms and high heat index values are expected again Wednesday. A few of the storms could become severe with damaging winds.
