Maybe these storms will alleviate some of the heat this afternoon. These are very slow moving storms, so it will be hit or miss whether (weather) or not you get one. Some of these storms are accompanied with briefly heavy rain and cloud to ground lightning.
Be sure you keep it slow on the roads to avoid hydroplaning. Keep your headlights on so other motorists can see you.
WEATHER SPONSOR
The weather is being sponsored by John deVille, a candidate for the Macon County Board of Education.
