"Severe Weather Threat: Tornadoes and Damaging Winds Expected Across Multiple States"

A wind advisory is in effect for north Georgia until 8 p.m. Thursday, with additional wind gusts up to 35 mph possible. The overnight heavy rain and damaging wind gusts have led to fallen trees and power lines across the metro Atlanta area. While the severe weather risk is over, scattered showers are expected during the morning commute, and there is a likelihood of more trees and power lines falling over the next few hours.
