FORECAST VARIES GREATLY FROM NORTH TO SOUTH
Good Saturday morning! The way your Saturday weather plays out will depend on where you live. Further north and northwest, we’ll see more sun and higher temperatures. Further south, we’ll run into more cloud, higher rain chances, and cooler temperatures. A majority of the showers will fall from I-20 and points south, but we can’t rule out a few north of that line. We’ll call it a 20% chance.

SUMMER OVER OR NOT?
While some model guidance is showing cooler air making it back into Georgia late next week, other guidance is not. If the late week cold front stalls north of our area, we’ll be baking near 90 once again.

SATURDAY, IN ATHENS
Looks like we’ll have to dodge a few showers in and around Athens tomorrow. While most of the rain on Saturday will fall south of I-20, we can’t rule out a few showers creeping northward toward the Athens area. Here’s future radar for 3:00PM tomorrow. I’d have that poncho ready incase a shower rolls in during the game.

MOST RAIN MISSES TO THE SOUTH TODAY
Happy Friday, north Georgia! The forecast continues to be a bit tricky regarding these rain chances. For the time being, it looks like most of the scattered showers miss us to the south today, and we get to enjoy a nice end to the week. Saturday, better rain chances should come back our way, but models are still disagreeing how far north despite us being so close to the weekend. Either way, it’ll be warm. Highs in the mid to upper 80s this afternoon. Low to mid 80s Saturday.

UPCOMING RAIN CHANCES
Models have been a bit inconsistent on how the rain chances will unfold over the next two days. In general, Saturday looks wetter than Friday. Only isolated showers are likely across north GA tomorrow. Much of the activity will miss us to the south. Saturday, chances for rain are higher but mainly along and south of an I-20 to I-85 line.

SHOULD WE STILL CHANGE TIME OR NOT?
What do you think? The earlier sunsets have become much more noticeable lately. It’s only a matter of time before we are dark VERY early in the evening as daylight saving time ends.

LAST DAY BEFORE RAIN CHANCES RAMP UP
We’ll start to notice some changes today. Clouds will start to increase ahead of low pressure approaching from the west. By this evening, we may even run into a light shower or two close to the Georgia/Alabama line. Most will stay dry. Expect temperatures in the low to mid 80s again this afternoon. Better chances for rain return Friday and beyond.

COOL MORNING, WARM AFTERNOON ☀️
Good morning, north Georgia! How cool did it get at your house last night? 🥶 We’ll have plenty of sunshine on the way, and that will quickly turn our cool morning temperatures into 80s for the afternoon. Humidity stays low, so it should feel pretty nice for any outside plans today.

NEAR RECORD COLD TONIGHT
I can’t remember the last time we wrote that headline in August. We’re headed to the mid 50s tonight which is near record territory across much of the area! Gainesville will likely break their low temperature record for the coldest 8/27. Some of our mountain communities may dip into the 40s.
