(STORM WATCH ATLANTA) ATLANTA GA
SUNDAY MARCH 13TH 2014 1:10 PM ET
A strong cold front is headed this way! This should produce a severe weather outbreak in AL on Monday. Before the front arrives, temps will be in the 70s and 80s Monday across the southeast. After the front moves across the southeast, night time lows on Wednesday into Thursday will drop one more time back into the 30s. The front will be so strong and all severe weather ingredients indicate there could be a few tornadoes, mainly across central AL, but there could be one or two into west GA late afternoon Monday into Monday evening.
The main threat from severe storms on Monday in Atlanta and areas to the west will be damaging winds, some minor flooding and large hail. Large hail appears to the the highest threat of all at this time.
The best time for severe weather is far NW and west central GA on Monday will be from 3pm to 9pm. As the storms move into areas east of Atlanta, the storms should weaken, but will fire up again Tuesday along the coast. Rain will continue on Tuesday, but no severe weather is expected.
