Weather Briefing for Thursday, March 02, 2023
Due to an extended illness, Macon Media will be on light duty and will not be aggregating news links for a little bit. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. –Bobby Areas of low pressure will cross Tennessee and the mountains today bringing widespread showers and some storms. Low pressure will organize over Texas and then move northeast through Friday as its cold front approaches our region from the west. There is the potential for severe weather on Friday ahead of this cold front. As the storm system moves over the Atlantic Friday night, dry high pressure moves in for the weekend and the first part of next week.

HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK
Widespread rain showers will go on intermittently today and tonight, with the potential for some embedded thunder this afternoon. On Friday, a strong cold front is expected to move quickly across the forecast area, most likely arriving in early- to mid-afternoon. Instability and shear parameters are expected to support scattered strong to severe thunderstorms, with damaging winds and possibly a few tornadoes possible the most likely impacts, though hail will be possible as well. Mid- to late-afternoon looks to be the most likely window for severe threats, but some uncertainty still remains in timing.
