The impact of the numbers coming up to Atlanta is huge. This means folks escaping Florida and Savannah. I hope they are planning on staying in surrounding towns and suburbs to find a room...or have friends with homes here. Weather-wise, the wind speeds here will be between 40 to 80 mph. That means LOTS of downed trees and power outages. The groceries we went to were already out of water, bread, etc.. , and horrible traffic. Still many days yet. Best to look at least 40 miles out of town, but even there folks are stocking up. When the power goes down from the many falling trees, it will impact a lot of north Georgia.
