Heating Up This Weekend

Rain Chances Return

Heat to Linger?

Today

Tonight

Tomorrow

Cooler and less humid conditions continue today with a warming trend from Thursday into the weekend. High temperatures will go back into the 90s, with heat index values near or above 100 by Sunday.

Very dry air will remain over the area today. Isolated to scattered afternoon showers and thunderstorms return Thursday and Friday. A ridge of high pressure building to the north will keep rain and thunderstorm chances low over the weekend into next week.

Models favor a ridge of high pressure remaining over the eastern US for most of next week, leading to continued above average temperatures that will start this weekend. For North and Central Georgia, this will be the warmest stretch of weather we have had so far this year. “Feels like” temperatures (heat index) may exceed 100°F each afternoon for most of next week.

Here are the forecast high temperatures and precipitation chances for today.
