Stay alert during the overnight hours as severe weather will move through the Troup County area.

Overview: A strong storm system currently deepening over Texas will lift east tonight and drag a strong cold front across the area early on Wednesday. Strong to severe storms are expected to develop ahead of the approaching cold front and push across the area tonight and early on Wednesday.

WHAT & WHEN: The initial storm threat will likely come from discrete supercell thunderstorms that develop ahead of a squall line and push into northwest and west central Georgia by late this evening or shortly after midnight tonight. These storms will push across the rest of the area through mid to late Wednesday morning. The second severe threat will come from a squall line that is expected to push across the area mainly between 3 am and 11 am Wednesday morning. Expect this squall line to bring the greatest potential for severe weather. Damaging winds and isolated tornadoes are the main storm threats at this time. Locally heavy rainfall of 1 to 3 inches will also bring the potential for isolated flash flooding and minor stream/river flooding.
