It’s been a few weeks since severe weather rolled through Coffee County. That streak should end this afternoon.
Shortly after lunch, another squall line will pass through South Georgia, bringing high winds and potentially heavy rainfall. Winds could gust between 50-70 mph with non-thunderstorm winds approaching 40 mph. Isolated tornadoes are also a possibility.
The storms are moving west to east and are predicted to get to Coffee County between 1-3 p.m. These kinds of weather systems don’t typically hang around for very long – move in quickly, do their damage, then are gone equally quickly. But they can be very destructive for the short time they’re around.
Everyone stay diligent and safe. DouglasNow will provide updates as more information comes in.
