❄ THIS WEEKEND: There continues to be many questions about the weekend forecast for Metro Atlanta and North Georgia. The cold air will be in place, but will any moisture?

The modeling with this has been all over the place - which is somewhat normal with systems like these. Yesterday, the models backed off almost completely from seeing any winter weather. Now, some are starting to get back on board.

I know you see different maps of different scenarios floating around out there. For what it's worth, that's not what I'm looking at. Those are not the right thing to be looking at in instances like this. Rather, I'm looking at the different ensemble members of the Euro & GFS.

The ensemble is essentially the same model run a bunch of times with only minor tweaks to the starting points. It's those individual runs that are leaning more and more into a wintry direction.

Here's what I know as of now (Wednesday evening):

1. There is a chance that we could see winter weather late Saturday into Sunday, with the better chance being SOUTH of I-20. The extent of impacts, if anything happens, would likely be a gradient south to north.

2. There's a distinct possibility, if not a likelihood, that nothing happens. We are at the mercy of the models, which typically don't handle events like this well until about 24-48 hours out.

3. The forecast will (hopefully) become much more clear by Friday night.

4. If we do end up with snow in the picture, which again is not guaranteed, significant impacts will be possible in Metro Atlanta and Central Georgia early Sunday.

If you live in Metro Atlanta, North or Central Georgia, make sure you're following my page, Alex Forbes, for updates into the weekend. This forecast will likely evolve.
