I'm east of Atlanta. The path looks like it might angle west toward Alabama after going through Atlanta. We'll probably get a lot of tree damage and flash flooding here in my area.

Schools may be closed on Monday and Tuesday in our county. We'll know by late Sunday afternoon according to an email from the school district.

Stay safe Hortensis. Trees that have been stressed by drought are vulnerable.
