Middle Georgia Forecast:

After several warm and mild days across the Southeast, a pattern change is on our doorstep this morning. A surface low pressure system lifting across the Midwest and into the Great Lakes region continues to deepen over the course of the day today. Its attached cold frontal boundary spans across a majority of states, and will sharpen and sweep eastward as the low strengthens. Ahead of the front, moisture has begun to rebound, with dew points surging into the 60s by midday. North and Central Georgia will be fairly far removed from the parent system, but sufficient forcing will support the development of a line of showers and thunderstorms that will move from northwest to southeast across the region during the afternoon and evening on Tuesday.

Showers and thunderstorms are ongoing across MS/AL out ahead of this line of convection. Expect by this afternoon a discrete cell may form ahead of the front that could be severe. The SPC has placed a majority of the forecast area under a Marginal Risk (level 1 out of 5) for severe weather generally this afternoon through nightfall.

Moving into Wednesday, frontal convection will be ongoing across the southern half of the region through the night, and continuing into the afternoon. Instability will gradually taper off. Much drier air will filter in behind the front, so expect fairly rapid clearing into the afternoon. Most locations will see a return to sunny skies before we lose daylight.

Middle Georgia Forecast:

The satellite loop shows mostly clear skies and it should stay that way through most of the day. We could see some fog across North and Middle GA just before daybreak today, but it should burn off by 9 to 10 am. High pressure centered over western Tennessee/Kentucky will move east over the next 24 to 36 hours moving off the Mid-Atlantic coast by Tuesday. This ridge is what is currently keeping things dry over the southeastern U.S. but as it moves east we will get into more moist East to Southeast flow Monday night. This ridge is pushing out of the way will also allow the next frontal system to push into our area. This frontal boundary is currently developing over the 4 corners region with its main low center expected to be over SW Kansas by 12 noon Monday. This low center continues to push NE into the Western Great Lakes states Monday night. It’s associated cold front moves into the Mid Mississippi River Valley Monday evening with precipitation pushing into NW GA around 9 pm Tuesday. We are only expecting showers Monday night as this front nears the area but could definitely hear some thunder into the extended period with this system.

Temperatures continue on the warm side with lows tonight in the 50s to near 60. Highs Monday will be mainly in the 70s across Central Georgia.

Middle Georgia Forecast:

Split flow aloft will be in place with two separate systems creating a complex moisture draw near the area. Deep trough out west that has subtropical connections with a shortwave rotating through it emerges into Texas, with some weak cyclogenesis at the surface taking place that will aid in drawing up some moisture to our west. To the north, the polar jet will have a sharp wave diving into the upper Midwest and through the Great Lakes that may begin to tap into the moisture drawn up from the more southern system. The end result isn’t as impressive as the build up may sound; some rain showers may be possible Thursday evening into the overnight hours across northern Georgia, but overall probabilities are low. Rainfall amounts should be light.

It will remain unseasonably warm. Highs today will top out in the 70s and even some 80s, although areas of western GA may not reach that thanks to cloud cover lingering a bit longer than expected. Similar story for Friday, with highs in the 70s and 80s that represent a 10-15 degree departure from average.

Middle Georgia Forecast:

Despite some morning cloud cover high temperatures will lean heavily towards warmer temperatures on Wednesday. Widespread afternoon highs that are 12 to 18 degrees above average have been in the forecast, and will remain in the forecast for the next few days. This will translate into upper 70s in North Georgia and lower 80s in Middle Georgia. Cities like Atlanta and Athens should be within 2 to 4 degrees of record highs Wednesday afternoon. Macon and Columbus should approach record highs as well, although the odds suggest that we won’t break these records.

The extended forecast begins with weak ridging keeping things dry but that will be short-lived. High pressure centered off the South Carolina/Georgia coast keeps a warm frontal boundary north of the state through early Friday morning. This ridging will allow temperatures to reach into the upper 70s to the lower 80s across much of the area Thursday and Friday. We will be on the lookout for record breaking daytime highs, with some sites either break, tie, or approach the records. Temperatures are expected to be 15-20 degrees above seasonal norms.

By Thursday afternoon, the next frontal system will be developing over the Southern Plains as a closed low deepens over Northern Texas and Oklahoma through Friday morning. Its associated cold front will push into the lower to mid Mississippi River Valley Thursday night with the deeper moisture arriving in NW GA by sunrise Friday. Warm moist SW flow sets up ahead of this boundary helps to increase daytime highs Friday. Showers arrive midday in NW GA slowly moving SE across the region through Saturday night. Things clear out again Sunday with increasing clouds again Monday ahead of the next frontal boundary developing across the Southern Plains.

Middle Georgia Forecast:

The latest satellite loop shows mostly clear skies across the region with a developing frontal boundary moving east out of the Plains and into the upper to mid Mississippi River Valley. There is also a weakening high pressure ridge centered over Central Kentucky that is expected to move southeast off the North Carolina coast Thursday afternoon. This ridge will still be nosed down across South Carolina/Georgia border through Tuesday evening as the frontal boundary pushes east mainly into the Great Lake states. The tail end of this boundary does push slightly into North Georgia Tuesday evening but the ridge keeps the deeper moisture and dynamics well north of the state. We could still see some light showers across North GA Tuesday night but we are not expecting any thunder. At most we could see a sprinkle across North Georgia Tuesday night.

Low temperatures tonight will cool to near seasonal norms with lows mainly in the 40s and some upper 30s in the North GA mountains. Temperatures will warm substantially Tuesday with highs in the 70s to near 80 across north and Middle Georgia. These temperatures will be about 5 to 10 degrees above normal for this time of the year. With the increased cloud cover Tuesday night temps will only dip down into the 50s to upper 40s.

The primary focus of the longer term forecast remains centered on the next opportunity for widespread rain. After a system Tuesday night that looks like a dud for most of the state, the next opportunity for rain should arrive over the weekend.

Middle Georgia Forecast:

Dry conditions and much warmer than normal temperatures will continue across North and Central Georgia during the middle of the upcoming week. This pattern is being driven by a mid level ridge that will build across the Southeast U.S. from over the Gulf through the end of the week. A few mid-level shortwaves and associated moisture will ride along the top of the ridge and would at most only bring a few showers to far North GA on Wednesday into Thursday. On Friday, a shortwave and associated low will rapidly eject out of the Southwest U.S. up into the Midwest. This will push the ridge a little further east and turn winds aloft out of the southwest, bringing in sufficient moisture across the western half of the state to support scattered showers or storms. The overall pattern looks like it will remain fairly stagnant through the rest of the weekend, with troughing over the Southern Plains and Southwest U.S., and ridging over the Southeast U.S. coast. This will support warm temperatures and isolated to scattered showers and storms each day, primarily across west and northwest Georgia.

High temperatures from midweek into the weekend will be 12 to 18 degrees above normal, ranging from the mid 70s to low 80s across the area, and could see a few daily record highs either tied or broken. Overnight lows will be 14 to 20 degrees above normal, ranging from the mid 50s to low 60s.

Middle Georgia Forecast:

High pressure remains over the Southeast through the short term period, slowly advancing eastward. As a quick moving shortwave swings northeastward into the North Atlantic, a weak ridge sets up within northwesterly flow to the north of the region which will reinforce the surface high. The influence of the high should inhibit any precipitation chances today and tomorrow. With the center of the high becoming positioned over the region Friday, low level winds will diminish and become light and variable. Temperatures will continue their steady climb under the high pressure system.
Highs today will range from the low to mid 70s area wide. Relative humidity values on Friday afternoon are forecast to reach or briefly drop below 25 percent in Middle Georgia. With fuels remaining dry, a Fire Danger Statement may be issued if dew points trend lower in the upcoming forecasts. With clear skies, dry air, and light winds, radiational cooling will be sufficient overnight, with lows dropping to the upper 40s to low 50s.

Temperatures remain mild for Saturday through next Wednesday as the outlook for needed rainfall in Georgia remains pretty bleak through next week.

Middle Georgia Forecast:

A building ridge and surface high pressure are centered to the southwest will aid in the current warming trend. After low temperatures start the morning in the 40s, highs will warm into the upper 60s to low 70s, which will be about 3 to 7 degrees above normal. The influence of the high pressure system will inhibit precipitation chances today and tomorrow.

As we move through the weekend and early next week the models strongly favor above average temperatures. The passage of a poorly defined upper level trough on Sunday could produce a slight dip in temperatures, early in the week. Although it will go unnoticed by most, high temperatures should remain 8-14 degrees above normal. High temperatures in the lower 70s. Low temperatures will remain mild.

A lack of significant moisture in the region will greatly restrain the potential for precipitation through next Tuesday.

Middle Georgia Forecast:

Surface high pressure continues to move southeast. Winds will shift to the southwest as low level moisture will begin to increase overnight into Wednesday. In spite of increasing dew points, precipitation is not expected on Wednesday. A warming trend will continue under the high pressure system, with highs climbing into the low to mid 60s in North Georgia and upper 60s in Middle Georgia.

The worst of the cold is behind us. The area will slowly see a steady rise in temperatures through the remainder of the work week. Especially in afternoon high temps which are expected to fight their way back up into the low to mid 70s by the weekend. Overnight lows will gradually increase from the mid 40s to the 50s by the weekend.

Other than that, the weather becomes pretty much on cruise control again. Models are still conflicted about the timing and possibility of a front that may bring another shot of rain and a few thunderstorms towards the end of the weekend, but expect increasingly warm and pleasant conditions for the rest of the week.

Middle Georgia Forecast:

Surface high pressure has settled over the Southeast, as the airmass has begun to moderate and a warming trend has begun. After a frigid start to the morning, high temperatures will rise into the upper 40s to low 50s. These highs will still be 15-20 degrees below normal, but not quite as cold as yesterday. Lighter winds and plenty of sunshine today will also prevent wind chills from feeling as oppressive as yesterday. Fire Danger concerns are likely, with Relative Humidity values dropping to 25 percent in Central Georgia.

From midweek through the start of the weekend, dry conditions and gradually warming temperatures will lead to pleasant Fall weather across North and Central Georgia. Wednesday morning will be our last gasp of the cold air outbreak, as the day starts out with temperatures in the low to mid 30s under mostly clear skies. The overall airmass will warm up quite a bit during the day on Wednesday, as ridging starts to build into the area from over the Gulf. This feature looks like it will keep North and Central Georgia within the West to North West flow through at least Saturday, before a trough approaches the area on Sunday. Overall expect high temperatures to warm from the 60s on Wednesday, to the low to mid 70s through Saturday, while overnight lows climb back into the 40s to low 50s.

Middle Georgia Forecast:

The cold air has arrived into the area with some moisture associated with the surface low as it tracks closer. As a result, flurries or snow showers are possible in the higher elevations where temperatures are more likely to line up with the moisture areas. Don’t be surprised if you see very light flurries reaching past the north Georgia mountains, but overall still no impacts are to be expected.

The bigger story remains the coldest air of the season pushing into the area. A freeze warning has been issued for overnight tonight into tomorrow morning for the northern portions of the area where temperatures will reach into the upper 20s to low 30s. Daytime highs tomorrow top out at 20-25 degrees below normal in the mid 30s to low 40s over much of the area. Pushing into Monday night into Tuesday morning a freeze watch has been issued for the entirety of north and central Georgia where temperatures are expected to reach into the 20-27 degree range. This is considered a hard freeze and will kill any unprotected vegetation, ending the growing season.

Dry air filters in behind Monday’s front, and we will slowly see a steady rise in temperatures. Afternoon high temperatures are expected to fight their way back up into the low 70s by the end of the work week.
