(AP) -- A line of thunderstorms is moving through Georgia, bringing with it showers and winds of up to 60 mph. 

Kent McMullen, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Peachtree City, says most of the state will get up to 2 inches of rain before the storms pass Tuesday.

He said some isolated areas could see 3 inches, but forecasters are only predicting minor flooding for most of the state. 

He says the strong winds could spawn tornadoes in some areas.
