We could see more rain and strong wind across the area on Friday.

Some North Georgia Counties, including Gordon, will be under a High Wind Warning from 7 a.m. until 7 p.m. Friday.

Sustained winds of 25-35 mph with gusts of 45 to 60 mph can be expected — especially in the higher elevations.

A Wind Advisory will be in effect for the rest of north and central Georgia including Floyd, Bartow, Chattooga, and Polk Counties.

Sustained winds of 15-30 mph with gusts up to 45 mph can be expected.

A slight risk of severe storms covers all of central and north Georgia, but there is low confidence for severe weather north of i-20.
