Pat's Forecast for SE GA / SE SC
Clouds All Week! Heavy Rains Saturday
A cold front has passed through the area and is located south of the GA/FL line. Behind it, a broad area of high pressure with gusty NE winds. Those winds, along with the upcoming new moon, will cause the tides to be elevated through Sunday, rising to the very top of the marshes and possibly overflowing around the high tide times.
Weekend Flooding Possible:
Another rain system will move into the region over the upcoming weekend with the potential for heavy rains along with king tides which could result in coastal counties flooding.
Tropical Weather:
Tropical Storm Isaias is slowly organizing in the extreme southern Gulf of Mexico and will likely become the first hurricane of the Atlantic season by tomorrow. It will drift slowly eastward today then turn more toward the north on Thursday strengthening into a category 2 hurricane with winds around 100 mph south of the mouth of the Mississippi. it will make landfall somewhere east of the mouth of the Mississippi, perhaps somewhere around Mobile, AL. However, the storm will draw in tropical moisture over southern GA and SE SC resulting in periods of heavy rains on Saturday in our region.
The drought conditions continue to improved with those periods of rain we've been receiving. (See Drought Maps).
