Pat's Forecast for SE GA / SE SC
King Tides & Heavy Rains Saturday
Clouds continue to stream over the region and will persist through early Sunday. Hurricane ISAIAS will move to the north central Gulf of Mexico making landfall late Friday night somewhere around Pensacola, FL and will continue to track northward. However, it will draw tropical moisture across our region of SE GA / SE SC Friday and Saturday resulting in periods of moderate to heavy rains. Rainfall totals could accumulate anywhere from 2-4 inches here. There will even be a slight chance for a few short-lived spin-up tornadoes on Saturday over Georgia and southern SC.
Tidal Flooding Possible through Sunday morning:
With the upcoming new moon and the continued steady easterly fetch of winds off the Atlantic, the high tide cycles through Sunday morning will be greatly elevated. The greatest threat for coastal flooding will be Friday evening through Sunday morning's high tide cycles.
Tropical Weather:
Hurricane ISAIAS, the first hurricane of the Atlantic season, will most likely strengthen to a strong category 2 storm with 105-110 mph winds before making landfall somewhere around Pensacola, FL. The storm will draw in tropical moisture over southern GA and SE SC resulting in periods of moderate to heavy rains Friday night through Saturday in our region. It could even produce a few short-lived spin-up tornadoes on Saturday in Georgia and South Carolina.
The drought conditions continue to improved with those periods of rain we've been receiving. (See Drought Maps).
