Drought holds steady throughout the state

ATLANTA - It&#39;s going to take more than one tropical storm to resurrect Georgia from what will be its fifth summer of drought. <br> <br> While metro Atlantans opened their umbrellas Friday for the first time in 17 days, one storm isn&#39;t enough to make much of a difference. <br> <br> Before Friday, the measuring station at Hartsfield Atlanta International Airport hadn&#39;t recorded a single drop of rain. Some cities such as Douglasville hadn&#39;t had a drop in almost a month. <br> <br> But Tropical Storm Hanna heading north of the Gulf of Mexico brought some desperately needed downpours to central and south Georgia today and was expected to continue throughout the weekend, possibly dropping two to four inches in portions of the state. <br> <br> Bob Goree, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Tallahassee, says the storm is not likely to be a serious wind event and should not cause much destruction. But he warned that some flooding was possible, maybe in south Georgia, which could get four to five inches of rain. <br> <br> Forecasters warn that while the storm was expected to bring some rainfall to Georgia this weekend, on Monday, things were expected to go back to their normal, dry state.
