Imagine being under this band. It has got to be absolutely pouring in there.

Starting to get the occasional 15mph gust. I just walked around the neighborhood still light/moderate steady rain.

My rain charm must have transferred to you. You got more then double what I have back home so far. Up to .37 right now.

Saw a station in Buford with .65 and .56 a few minutes ago. Dacula which is right down the street is .5 and Jefferson is and .23. It’s definitely spotty right now.

I’m a few miles south of Downtown Buford. It does look like the rainfall rate is starting to increase a bit though. I think 2-5 inches tonight is gonna be reasonable.

Dang, they are putting flash flood warnings out ahead of this band like they do with severe thunderstorm or tornado warnings.

I'm at something around 0.4" at the moment. Heaviest is yet to come.

You are a few miles south of Buford ? I thought you were in Oklahoma ?
Sorry for the non info post, but You remind me of southeast ridge

That is where my home is, but I’m at college in Oklahoma right now. I still got my rain gauge out there. I was specifically mentioning where that was.

Let me guess, a Ford? ???
I’m calling for 1-2” max total for GSP!

Is that a compliment ?

Atlanta is marked with the black dot. You can see all the higher totals so far have been on the east side of the city. So I-85 or Hwy78 zone might be the sweet spots.

That puts the NRV of VA In a really bad spot. Especially since we weren't expecting much if any rain.
Nam already looks more NW

We’ve had some flooding issues in our basement the last few years. We’ve done some work. Tonight is going to be interesting
Steady rain here for most of the night. Total washout tomorrow
rain here, and umm, nice ob for Dalton lol
1.17” here so far, half of that was from a heavy shower around 5PM.

It looks like the more moderate rainfall is fixing to push into the perimeter within the next hour or 2.

Steady rain for a while now, looks like the heavier stuff will likely pull over early in the morning.
But part of me is wondering if this is going to end sooner than expected just by looking at radar trends and the HRRR does have this ending in the morning tomorrow. Even if so, the areas that get under the heaviest rain bands are going to get a fairly healthy high total...

It’s pouring and some wind here in Cherokee County. Look at radar and and rain is definitely picking up in intensity. It’s like your in a squall line?

Stay safe everyone! Hoping we don’t get wind here in Georgia to knock trees down like they did in Alabama. Good night!

Steadily picking up now. South side is getting hammered.

Rain gauge back home now up to 3/4 of an inch. Heaviest rain is still to come it as the main rain bands continue moving in.
I would say Atlanta and west has another 6-8 hours of the heavier rain to go with the east side having between 8-10 hours to go.

Burns calling for 1-2” tells you how big of a joke he’s become

Radar estimates around Atlanta are already over an inch in most spots. Now that the heavier rain is coming in, I would say we could see another 2-4 across the metro. Highest totals on the south and east side.

Yup 2-4” seems inevitable

Flash flood warnings now up for parts of the Atlanta metro and areas south.
Meanwhile my rain gauge back home is starting to see the highest rain rates so far. Currently got rain rates between a quarter and a half inch an hour. Current storm total is 1.12 inches.
