Pike County Forecast -- Thursday, April 9, 2020

Boom, Boom. Out go the lights!

A thunderstorm is approaching Pike County as I write this (5:18 AM).  There's a whole line of them approaching Atlanta at this moment. Be sure to take a look at the radar to get the big picture.

Now, for the rest of the day;

It's 65º out at the Farm.  It will probably drop a few degrees with the approaching storm.  The humidity is 99% with the wind out of the West at 10 mph. 

The forecast:

Thursday

A 30 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms, mainly before 9am. Mostly sunny, with a high near 80. Northwest wind 10 to 15 mph increasing to 15 to 20 mph in the afternoon. Winds could gust as high as 30 mph.

There is, of course, a hazardous weather warning.

A line of storms is moving through central Georgia producing
strong winds and frequent lighting. This line will have the
potential to produce severe winds, hail, and a weak and short-
lived tornado or two.

It is a cold front, so expect cooler temperatures and wind.  The low tomorrow morning is expected to be below 50ºF.

Stay safe.  Enjoy the afternoon.
