Expect the end of the week to continue the mostly cloudy and warm trend as the humidity will climb leading into the weekend. A 2nd cold front will bring much better storm chances with some showers possible Friday and the aforementioned storms likely sometime Saturday. More will become clear about hazards with these storms as the week progresses. As of now the SPC has not highlighted anything for Georgia, however that Level 2 “Slight” risk for Mississippi, Louisiana, Tennessee, and parts of Arkansas/Alabama remains in effect for Friday afternoon/evening.
