The first round has come and gone through Charleston within the last half hour. Radar estimates show that little rain has fallen on the metro, which is not so good news, as we could use it. The good news is that the severe weather has gotten noticeably quieter as the daytime heating has ceased. There are a couple storms in south central Georgia that are firing out some warnings, but it’s definitely not as bad as the multiple tornado warnings that Alabama and Mississippi saw earlier on. I haven’t seen an active tornado warning since about 9:45, which is a good sign that the loss of the daytime heating is having an impact on the intensity of the storms.
There’s still a ton of wind in these, though, and the cold front is only now crossing into Georgia, so the worst is yet to come. It’s just a matter of when, and even Brian is uncertain as to the timing.
I’m not going to be a super-crazy person tonight, so I’m just going to hit the sack now. If there’s a nice rumble, I’m sure I’ll hear it. :)
