For the second day in a row, a Heat Advisory will be in effect Friday for most of Georgia, this time including Hall County. And the same goes for Saturday. Both days 1:00 p.m.-8:00 p.m. And the weather service says little, if any, relief is expected through the weekend at least.
“…many locations will see temperatures climb into the mid to upper 90s through the weekend, with heat indices likely to approach or reach triple digits,” the latest advisory says.
The advisory is for counties along and south and west of a line from Toccoa to Gainesville to Dalton.
