'Fay' closes two SE Ga school systems
Schools in Camden and McIntosh counties were closed Thursday, ahead of expected heavy rains and wind in southeast Georgia. Tropical Storm Fay continues to threaten Georgia's entire 100-mile coastline--a flood watch is in effect for counties in southeast Georgia through late Friday. Current predictions are for 3-6 inches of rain. The storm could also bring strong winds, causing localized flooding and power outages. As of Thursday morning, Fay was nearly stationary in the Atlantic off Florida's coast near Daytona. Forecasters expect the storm to eventually move west-northwest during the day.
