Saturday will be another day of hot weather, with temps near 90. But then a line of storms moves in on Sunday.

All of metro Atlanta and North Georgia are under a severe weather threat.

Those storms start making their way into Northwest Georgia around 7 a.m.

“It looks like during the afternoon, into the evening hours, the potential for damaging winds and some embedded tornadoes are a possibility,” Nitz said.

Those storms will stick around throughout the evening and rain will linger into Monday.

Following the storms, we’re going to see a big drop in temperatures.
