The Southeastern United States finds itself at the mercy of a formidable storm system, unleashing significant rainfall with potential repercussions for the Northeast in the coming weekend.
As the atmospheric drama unfolds, regions like Columbus, GA, face the brunt with an anticipated 5-7 inches of rainfall. The sprawling metropolitan expanse around Atlanta is not spared, expecting a dousing of 2-3 inches. However, the Jackson–Montgomery–Macon axis emerges as the epicenter, poised to experience the most substantial rainfall during the day and night.
The simulated radar projections for the next 18 hours paint a vivid picture of the storm’s trajectory, emphasizing the widespread impact across the Southeast.
