.DISCUSSION...

Have seen some showers and thunderstorms this morning and
expecting another round of storms just after daybreak. The second
round of storms will move in with a line of storms which looks to
begin affecting the Alpharetta area as early as 8-9am and
continuing to affect the area through early afternoon (1-3pm).
The main threats at this time continue to be damaging wind gusts,
large hail and the potential to see a few tornadoes. There is
still some uncertainty with a third wave of storms moving through
late Thu night into Fri morning, but current thinking is the
majority of these storms should be south of your area.
