The busy weather period will bring heavy rain, gusty winds and a severe weather threat to Southeast Georgia and the Lowcountry over the next few days. Strong cold is expected to sweep through the Southeast early next week. Tuesday is an impact weather day for the WJCL. A line of strong to severe thunderstorms is possible. The timing is still a bit uncertain, but I'm leaning toward midday or afternoon on Tuesday. Impacts may include gusty winds, heavy rain, hail and isolated tornadoes. Tuesday will be a generally windy day with wind gusts over 40 mph outside of thunderstorms. Below is an overview of the active and rapidly changing weather in our area. Friday looks dry before a large area of rain moves in Friday night. Rain is expected to fall by mid to late morning Saturday. Heavy rain and some thunder are possible. Here's a look at the precipitation on Futurecast at 6am on Saturday. The area of persistent and heavy rain will move quickly towards the northeast. If you have outdoor plans on Saturday afternoon, it will look a bit dry and breezy! Precipitation totals should end with the first round of rain at around 0.5″-1″ with isolated higher totals. A second round of rain on Tuesday could produce 1″+ of rain. Most forecast models point to another storm system heading our way Friday into Saturday of next week. Be sure to check back as we will provide updates on all the active weather ahead, especially the potential for Severe weather Tuesday.
