Thanksgiving Day cold front, strong to severe storms, tornado possible
Hazardous Weather Outlook issued by NWS Peachtree City 510 am Thur Nov 28
Isolated thunderstorms will be possible ahead of a cold front moving through north and central Georgia today. A few could be strong to severe. A Marginal Risk (level 1 of 5) is in effect. Damaging wind gusts will be the primary threat, though a brief tornado cannot be ruled out. The storm risk should end across north Georgia and the metro before noon and central Georgia by 5 PM.
The probability of widespread hazardous weather is low Friday, an unusually cold air mass for this time of year will move into north and central Georgia through the weekend into early next week. Morning "feels like" temperatures will be in the teens to 20s across most of the area Monday and Tuesday.
