LIVE RADAR: Storms moving through north Georgia, metro Atlanta [gAaIL57KScW]

A Severe Thunderstorm Watch is in effect for portions of North Georgia this evening until 11 p.m. The watch roughly extends along a line from Rome to Woodstock to Helen and all points north. After some scattered storms already this afternoon in north Georgia, the bigger concern comes during the evening end early overnight hours. A line of strong to severe storms is expected to move in from Tennessee and Alabama between 7 p.m. and midnight, with the Atlanta metro area most likely to see the strongest storms around or after 8 p.m. Damaging wind gusts are the primary threat, though a brief tornado isn’t out of the question... especially in far northwest Georgia. The severe threat will end after midnight. MORE:
