ATLANTA, GA — Forecasters are warning that a severe storm could hit north and central Georgia on Thursday, posing a risk for 60 mph winds and hail.
While the area was not at risk for tornadoes, isolated strong to severe thunderstorms could be an issue for residents by Thursday afternoon and evening, National Weather Service meteorologist Ryan Willis told Patch.
A detailed forecast showed the storm's arrival after noon but before 7 p.m. The storm may produce quarter-sized hail and gusty winds, Willis said.
In its hazardous weather outlook, the NWS additionally predicted frequent lightning.
Metro Atlanta and surrounding areas among the possible impacted areas, though areas in far northeast Georgia, near the Appalachian Mountains, could see stronger risks, Willis said.
Georgia may look forward to additional showers and storms as the days resume, with daily rainfall in the forecast through at least Tuesday.
By Monday, there may be a growing concern for localized flash flooding due to the continued wet pattern, Willis said. For now, he predicted flooding may not be a problem.
Here is the National Weather Service's detailed forecast for metro Atlanta:
This Afternoon: A 20 percent chance of showers before 3 p.m. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 72. Southeast wind around 5 mph.
Tonight: A chance of showers and thunderstorms, mainly between 10 p.m. and 5 a.m., then a chance of thunderstorms after 5 a.m. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 62. East wind around 5 mph becoming calm in the evening. Chance of precipitation is 50 percent.
Thursday: A slight chance of showers, then a chance of showers and thunderstorms after noon. Partly sunny, with a high near 81. Calm wind becoming southwest around 5 mph in the afternoon. Chance of precipitation is 50 percent.

Atlanta, GA (May 7, 2025) – A car crash resulting in injuries was reported early Monday morning at a busy Midtown intersection in Atlanta. The incident occurred around 4:29 a.m. at the junction of Howell Mill Rd NW and 10th St NW, drawing an emergency response from local first responders.
First responders, including paramedics, assessed and treated individuals hurt in the crash. Authorities have not released specific information regarding the number of vehicles involved or the severity of injuries sustained. The early morning crash caused some disruptions in the area as crews worked to manage the scene and ensure public safety.
An investigation is underway to determine what led to the collision. No additional details about contributing factors or the condition of those involved have been shared at this time. Our thoughts are with those affected by this incident.
Intersections like Howell Mill Rd NW and 10th St NW are high-traffic areas that link residential and commercial zones within Atlanta’s Midtown corridor. Accidents at these junctions can be particularly dangerous due to the volume of vehicles, the mix of one-way streets, and variable visibility, especially in early morning hours when fatigue or reduced alertness may come into play.
Crashes in Midtown Atlanta are often influenced by speeding, lane shifts, and failure to yield—especially where commuter and delivery traffic converge. The complexity of navigating turns and merges around Howell Mill Rd adds to the risk. Investigators will likely consider all of these elements when reviewing the crash report.
Even relatively low-speed collisions in dense city areas can leave victims with a variety of injuries, ranging from whiplash to head or back trauma. For those impacted, the process of recovery can be compounded by the emotional strain of dealing with insurance, medical bills, or time away from work.
If you’ve been hurt in an Atlanta crash and are unsure of your next steps, it’s important to seek guidance and support. For more information or to receive help after an accident, contact Local Accident Reports.

Holder Properties and Tamarack Investments have secured $46 million in construction financing and $25 million in joint venture equity for the development of a 608,642-square-foot industrial facility in Cumming, Ga.
Pinnacle Financial Partners provided the construction loan while Hartford Investment Management Co. contributed the joint venture equity. JLL represented the developers in both transactions.
Coal Mountain Industrial Park is set to rise at 4005 Settingdown Road and will be delivered in phases starting in 2026’s second quarter.
READ ALSO: Emerging Industrial Markets in the U.S.
Plans call for three rear-load buildings, measuring 146,000, 250,150 and 212,500 square feet. Features will include 32- to 36-foot clear heights, TPO roofing, concrete tilt-wall construction and 60-foot dock bay depths.
Coal Mountain Industrial Park is positioned near Georgia State Route 400. DeKalb-Peachtree Airport is 37 miles away, Marietta, Ga. and Atlanta are both within 47 miles, while Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport is within 54 miles of the project.
JLL Capital Markets Managing Director Bobby Norwood, Associate Hamp Gibbs and Analyst Streeter Simmons led negotiations on behalf of the borrowers.
Recent industrial developments that are moving forward in metro Atlanta include PNK Group’s Park Southern Gateway, an industrial campus expected to include 3 million square feet across four buildings, in McDonough, Ga. In March, the developer completed PNK Lambert A as part of that project.
In February, the first phase of Jackson 85 North Business Park came online in Pendergrass, Ga., encompassing 1.6 million square feet. At full build-out, the Trammell Crow Co. and CBRE Investment Management project is planned to encompass 2.3 million square feet.
Atlanta ranked among the top 10 best-performing markets for industrial development, with an 8.6 million-square-foot pipeline as of March, according to the latest CommercialEdge report. This amount represented 1.5 percent of its exiting stock—below the national average of 1.7 percent.

Atlanta, GA (May 7, 2025) – A traffic accident resulting in injuries occurred on Monday afternoon in the Mechanicsville neighborhood of Atlanta. The incident took place at approximately 12:19 p.m. EDT near 1539 Hill St NW.
Emergency responders were quick to the scene, providing care to the injured victims. The collision led to temporary disruptions as emergency personnel secured the area and provided aid to those involved. Specific details regarding the number of vehicles or the severity of injuries have not been released at this time.
Authorities are currently investigating the circumstances surrounding the accident. Factors such as road conditions, driver behavior, and vehicle performance are being considered to determine the cause of the collision.
Our thoughts are with those affected by this accident, and we wish them a full and speedy recovery.
Mechanicsville, one of Atlanta's historic neighborhoods, is characterized by a mix of residential streets and urban thoroughfares. Hill St NW serves as a significant connector in this area, accommodating both local and through traffic. The intersection near 1539 Hill St NW is particularly busy during midday hours, increasing the potential for vehicular incidents.
Urban collisions often result from a combination of factors, including speeding, distracted driving, and failure to adhere to traffic signals. In densely populated areas, the margin for error is slim, and the consequences can be severe.
For residents and commuters in Atlanta, it's crucial to remain vigilant and practice defensive driving. This includes adhering to speed limits, avoiding distractions such as mobile devices, and being mindful of other road users. Additionally, ensuring that vehicles are well-maintained can prevent mechanical failures that might contribute to accidents.
In the aftermath of a collision, those involved may face a range of challenges, from physical injuries to financial burdens due to medical expenses and vehicle repairs. It's important for victims to be aware of their rights and the resources available to them, including legal avenues for compensation.
If you or someone you know has been affected by a traffic accident, seeking professional advice can provide clarity and support during a difficult time.
