Those will spread another batch of showers and thunder across several southern Georgia and state line counties before and after sunset. Severe weather risks are low and mainly confined to stronger wind gusts accompanied by the heavier rain.
Area temperatures will depend on the timing and spread of rain; locations without rain will be warmer for longer, while rainy spots will have a quick temp drop. The 70s will prevail by midnight, with Friday morning lows in the mid and lower 70s.
