Overcast and unseasonably warm for the weekend. Rain showers possible on Saturday. There's an Enhanced Risk on Saturday focused over north-central Louisiana, much of central Mississippi and west-central Alabama. This also includes the risk of a severe weather outbreak and strong tornadoes (EF2+). That threat weakens as it moves eastward, but there may be a lower end risk of strong-severe t'storms including portions of SWGA into Sunday. Stay tuned! Briefly drier Monday. A chance of rain showers New Year's Eve. Cooler to colder New Year's Day. Freezing temperatures are possible first few days of 2025.

I sat down with Crisp County Sheriff Billy Hancock to talk about the steps you should take to stay safe around the holidays.

SYLVESTER, Ga. – Men United and the Sylvester-Worth County Family Connection joined forces to provide free meals for families in need this holiday season.

ALBANY, Ga. – South Albany is buzzing with the holiday season continuing as many in the community came together at Charles M. Sherrod Park to kick off Kwanzaa.

MOULTRIE, Ga. – You can visit Mac Wings On Wheels at 411 South Main Street in Moultrie.

CAMILLA, Ga. – Overnight, there was a boiler explosion at a Tyson's poultry plant in Camilla, leaving one dead and several injured.

Widespread dense morning fog then a chance of afternoon showers or thunderstorms on Saturday. Strong to severe thunderstorms possible on Sunday. Damaging wind is the main concern, but small hail and an isolated tornado are possible. Stay alert! Drier then much colder after New Year's.

TIFTON, Ga. – The Gnat Drop is back in Tifton, Georgia, promising to keep the party buzzing straight into 2025.

ALBANY, Ga. – It's a new era in Dougherty County law enforcement. As here at the courthouse, the county swore in their new sheriff Friday morning.

ALBANY, Ga. – And… speaking of law enforcement with New Year's Eve fast approaching, state troopers are going to be out on the road throughout the rest of the year.
