ATLANTA — Thunderstorms return to north Georgia on Friday with gusty winds possible at times. The 11Alive StormTrackers are tracking a line of thunderstorms moving into north Georgia through the morning and into the early afternoon.
Winds in a few of the thunderstorms could produce winds up to 58 mph and heavy rainfall. An isolated brief spin-up cannot be ruled out.
