A line of heavy rain is moving out of metro Atlanta Wednesday morning.
Severe Weather Team 2 Meteorologist Brian Monahan tracked the rain along with some lightning in parts of our area during Channel 2 Action News This Morning starting at 4:30 a.m.
Triple Team Traffic’s Mike Shields also reported on dozens of crashes because of the wet roads.
The rain will taper off by midday.
The soaking rain is needed with the ongoing drought across Georgia. Wednesday also marks the first time since mid-March that most areas have seen back-to-back days with rain.
Another round of rain arrives this weekend.
