A tornado watch issued for most of North Georgia, including metro Atlanta, has been canceled. Beginning around 4:30 am., there were heavy downpours with some thunder and lightning. The rain has now moved off and CBS46 is forecasting mostly dry conditions this afternoon. Another round of storms is expected to move in tonight.
