Advisory
Flood Watch Warning For Clayton County. SHERIFF VICTOR HILL
Summary: The Georgia Emergency Management Agency, in conjunction with the National Weather Service in Peachtree City, has issued a Flood Watch for Clayton County from Saturday morning through Sunday evening.
What to expect: A strong storm system will spread rain across north and central Georgia tonight and continuing into Sunday. Some of the rain could be heavy late Saturday and Saturday night. Total rainfall of 2 to 3 inches is expected across the watch area with isolated higher amounts.
Clayton County: The ground across north and central Georgia remains saturated from recent rains. Some rivers and creeks are already running high. Any additional heavy rain will result in high runoff, potentially causing some rivers and creeks to rise above flood stage. High water may not recede until well after the rains end.
What is next: There is still a possibility of snowfall on Tuesday Morning, however, this is still a complex and evolving forecast.
