Warmer Temperatures and Storms Expected in Cumming this Week
Shower and thunderstorms by Wednesday, some of which could produce gusty winds, heavy rain and frequent lightning.
A cold front is expected to push across north and central Georgia this week, ushering in warmer weather and maybe some severe thunderstorms, according to the National Weather Service.
"Instability and wind shear values appear sufficient to support the development of scattered to numerous thunderstorms on Wednesday, especially during the afternoon and evening," meteorologists say in a hazardous weather statement, which applies to Cumming and Forsyth County. "Strong upper level support suggest a few storms could be severe" across north and central Georgia.
In Cumming, fog may be a problem early Tuesday, when the high is expected to reach 66, according to the NWS forecast. Wednesday holds a 100 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms, some of which could produce gusty winds, heavy rain and frequent lightning. Hi temps in the 60s by mid-week should dip back below freezing, to 30, by Thursday night.
