WAITING ON RAIN
Very nice weather will be around over the next week or so. Cool mornings, warm afternoons, and lots of sunshine. This won’t be good for the ongoing drought though.

DROUGHT BEGETS DROUGHT
Forecast 7-day rainfall totals across north Georgia are essentially non-existent. Some folks across eastern portions of the area, closer to South Carolina may see a few showers while we are near this coastal low today into tomorrow, but that looks to be our only hope for rain right now.

TRENDING WARMER SATURDAY
With the wedge losing its effect across north Georgia, temperatures will start to warm a bit. Highs should wind up in the mid to upper 70s in most spots under a mostly sunny sky. Dry and increasingly warm weather continues this weekend into next week. Temperatures will be returning to the 80s.

FOLLOW UP: RABIES ORAL VACCINE AIRDROP ⚠️
Earlier today, we posted a public service announcement letting folks across north Georgia know about planned Oral Rabies Vaccine airdrops over the coming weeks. That post went viral, and there were lots of comments and questions about the program. We hope this Frequently Asked Question graphic helps.

RABIES AIRDROP ⚠️
Next week, the U.S. Department of Agriculture will drop oral rabies vaccines across parts of north Georgia highlighted in red. Over 500,000 units will be dropped via helicopter October 14th and 15th, and again via airplane October 21-28. If you find a bait, leave it… I’ve attached a photo in the comments of what these will look like.

COOLER THAN NORMAL FRIDAY
Happy Friday, north Georgia! Did you sleep well with those cooler temperatures last night? Cooler than normal weather continues today with highs in the 70s across the region. We are still being influenced by the wedge, and as a result we’ll have those strong easterly wind gusts yet again. Mostly sunny with more clouds to the southeast. We shouldn’t see any rain today.

COOL NIGHT AHEAD
Fall weather fans, enjoy tonight! Lows will fall to the 50s across much of north Georgia, 40s across the mountains. Who will be cracking the windows open tonight?

DROUGHT REACHES SEVERE LEVELS
The latest drought monitor was released this morning and shows severe drought now in progress across metro Atlanta, moderate drought across a good portion of north Georgia, and abnormally dry conditions just about everywhere else. The drought monitor takes into account recent rainfall, soil moisture, plant health, temperature impacts on soil, among other factors. These factors may outweigh rainy periods earlier in the year… so yes, drought is very much in progress despite all of those earlier rain chances.

BREEZY, MUCH COOLER TODAY
A cold front and now the wedge will combine to produce a very different day across north Georgia. Highs today will only reach the low to mid 70s in most spots. Jasper and some of our mountain communities may not even get to 70 today! Breezy with gusts up to 25MPH. We’ll have a partly cloudy sky with a slight chance for showers, mainly closer to the GA/AL line, closer to the boundary on the edge of the wedge.

FALL IS KNOCKING ON THE DOOR
A cold front moving through will usher in some big temperature changes across north Georgia. Today, it’s still quite warm. Many of us will see 80s. A few showers are possible as well. Tomorrow and Friday, we’re talking temperatures not even hitting 70 in many spots! Overnight lows will drop well into the 50s and even 40s starting Thursday night.
