Special Weather Statement

Statement as of 5:27 PM EST on November 20, 2009

Expires 7:00 AM EST on November 21, 2009


... Potential for heavy rain Saturday night and Sunday across north
and central Georgia...

An upper low was intensifying across south Texas this
evening... with an associated surface low along the Upper Texas
coast. The upper low will continue to strengthen and move east-
northeast through Sunday... affecting Georgia Saturday night and Sunday.
Rainfall with this system across north and central Georgia is
expected to be mostly around one inch. However... there is the
potential for up to two inches of rain... locally more... especially
across central Georgia... as this system tracks northeast early
Sunday.

With totally saturated ground across north and central Georgia
from repeated heavy rainfall in recent weeks... even the projected
rainfall amounts could result in minor flooding. There remain
uncertainties regarding the intensity and track of this system. If
rainfall is greater than currently expected... flooding problems
could become more of a concern and a Flood Watch may need to be
issued.

Residents of north and central Georgia should stay abreast of
weather developments and the latest forecasts through the weekend
by monitoring NOAA Weather Radio or commercial radio and television.
