Monday night’s bad weather didn’t leave quite the damage as Alabama, where a tornado touched down, as well as in the south Fulton area. However, there has been a major mess for morning commuters. Here’s what we know so far about the Cobb storm aftermath, and what to expect today as the cleanup continues:
- There’s a dense fog advisory for Cobb and most of metro Atlanta until 10 a.m., and dreary skies are expected for much of the day. The rush-hour commute has already been affected by this, but driving anywhere today figures to include low-visibility conditions;
- There’s no additional rain this morning, but there’s a lot of what’s left of last night’s thunderstorms still on the roads in standing puddles and runoff;
- High winds scattered debris, including tree branches, and we haven’t heard of any specific major issues in East Cobb, or anything that may affect traffic, including lane or road closures. We’ll update this if/when we get any information.
Most of the worst of the fog has already left the East Cobb area (it’s worse in west Cobb and along the Chattahoochee River), but today’s weather is still going to be soggy, and then it’s going to get cold tonight.
After high temperatures in the mid-60s, it could get around freezing, with a chance of scattered showers and low temperatures in the mid-30s.
On Wednesday, the sun returns with highs expected in the 50s. More rain is in the forecast for later in the week.
