Hi, Hi – StormTeam 3 Meteorologist Alysa Carsley here – let’s have a fabulous Saturday!

We kick off our weekend with slow-moving soaking showers moving on shore as a flash flood warning has already been issued for parts of Chatham County (including Savannah and the Islands). The warning expired at 7:15 am and rain showers will remain isolated through mid/late morning. By lunchtime into the early afternoon, waves of off & on storms will push back onshore. Numerous soaking showers are likely through late this evening. Our flooding risk continues today as well. We have a medium chance of excessive rainfall. Most rainfall totals will be between 1-2″ outside the isolated pockets of higher amounts. 

Sunday looks to be a rinse & repeat with morning coastal showers turning into numerous afternoon and evening storms. A medium chance of excessive rainfall will continue tomorrow, with weekend rainfall totals up to 3″+, especially in slow-moving storms. High temperatures 

These weekend storms are all thanks to the coastal low pulling away from North Carolina and the trough trailing right behind it. The trough keeps enough moisture moving northward to give us back-to-back likely rain showers and storms. 

By early in this upcoming work week, the trough weakens. This will help drop the chance of rain (finally), but temperatures start to climb. Highs will be back around average in the lower 90s. It will feel like summer again!
