Weather in the Classroom took me to Woodmore Elementary in the Brainerd Area yesterday. I had the chance to speak with the entire 1st grade! We ALL had a great time learning about weather!

A big Ya Hoo goes to Florence of Hixson for winning the garden of the Week! Florence will pick up a $100 Gift Card from The Barn Nursery!

 

Looks like summer fun...

The South Chickamauga Creek continues to recede this morning.

The South Chickamauga Creek crested at 6pm last night at 28.54', just below the record of 29.3' set back in 2003. This marks the 4th highest in recorded history.

 

As of 7am, the creek is at 25.5'. As noted below, look for the Creek to be below flood stage by 1-2pm TODAY.

While much of the flash flooding from yesterday has ended, we are once again dealing with more HEAVY rain this morning. This will lead to more excessive runoff on area roads. Flash Flooding is once again a problem for some this morning, especially in NW Georgia.

More scattered showers expected this weekend, but just as one storm moves out, another one moves in. This means a watchfull eye is needed as more flooding concers rise.
