Metro Atlanta is beginning Monday under cloudy skies, Channel 2 Actions News meteorologist Karen Minton said.

Showers and scattered storms are part of our afternoon and evening today and Tuesday. These are the main threats in some of the stronger to severe storms: Heavy rain, winds to 40 mph and small hail are possible in these storms. pic.twitter.com/7udnXKAzkS
