Ya'll take care! We're getting driving rain and
wind gusts close to 45 mph. No major damage,
but, the power has flickered on and off, and, was
off up to 20 minutes, a while ago. Only small
tree limbs down, right now. Flooding looks to be
the major issue for tomorrow.

Hey breeze,

Flooding was definitely a major issue here last night. Almost every county in metro Atlanta had flood warnings! Also, when I was driving home I almost got stuck on 75 since two right lanes were flooded. Trees and debris were also on side streets which made for a miserable drive for many. Luckily, no tornadoes touched down in this area. One more hurricane and the flooding will be out of control!
