A line of thunderstorms will be moving into Cobb County and North Georgia overnight Tuesday into Wednesday, followed by some cooler weather for most of the rest of the week.
The National Weather Service in Peachtree City has issued a hazardous weather outlook starting at 11 p.m. Tuesday and into the overnight hours (enhanced risk area in orange on map).
The forecast said that some thunderstorms “could be severe and capable of producing damaging wind gusts, large hail and a few tornadoes.”
The chance of precipitation is 100 percent, and between 1-2 inches of rain is possible.
While high temperatures on Wednesday will be in the mid-60s, lows will be dipping into the 40s and close to freezing through Sunday as the rain clears.
The NWS forecast said that areas of frost are possible across portions of North Georgia. Wind gusts are expected between 25-30 percent from early Wednesday through Thursday evening.
Highs during that stretch will range from the mid-50s to the low 60s, with warmer weather returning Sunday.
Highs will return to the 70s next week.
