Here's how Tropical Storm Francine could impact Georgia

All right, let's get you to our chief meteorologist Chris Holcomb with our 11 alive weather impact alert that we are monitoring for later this week. Yeah, for Thursday and Friday, this is a weather impact alert due to the rain and the storm risk and maybe even some wind in association with the remnants of what is soon to be hurricane Francine that is expected to make landfall along the Louisiana coastline on Wednesday. Here is the storm right now. It is a tropical storm right now and it is getting stronger. It is expected to become a hurricane during the day tomorrow and then here's the expected landfall based on this current track right here around the evening hours. We're thinking late afternoon and the evening on Wednesday with max winds about 85 miles an hour. Then the remnants move up toward the north roughly along the Mississippi River. Here, we're on the right hand side of that system and that is typically the side of the system that has more of the impacts with it, including storms including rain, that's gonna be circling up around that through the Gulf of Mexico. And so we are bracing for some impacts here. Now, I want you to know today is Monday, we're talking about Thursday and Friday. A lot can change between now and then. But based on the current track, we're watching that landfall Wednesday in Louisiana, we expect some rain, a storm risk and maybe some wind here. And we're talking between one and four plus inches of rain. I know that's a wide range of rainfall potential totals here. But that's based on the uncertainty with that we have with this system so far. So stay with us. We'll try to break this down a little bit more and have more, uh, on that seven day outlook coming up.
