A rainy start to the week is expected to intensify through Wednesday, and the National Weather Service in Atlanta has issued a flash flood watch until then for much of north Georgia.
Cobb County is included in a stretch that’s expected to get the heaviest amounts of rainfall, between 4 and 6 inches, during that time.
The watch began Sunday night (when the above map was released) and is set to expire at 2 a.m. Wednesday.
On Monday there is a 60 percent chance of rain, followed by a 100 percent chance on Tuesday, 90 percent on Wednesday and an 80 percent chance on Thursday.
Temperatures will reach into the high 70s with lows in the mid 60s through that time.
The rain will begin to clear out by the weekend, with sunny weather in the forecast for Saturday and Sunday.
