Fire Danger Concerns

Significant Rainfall Unlikely

Late April Rain Chances?

Today

Tonight

Tomorrow

Dry vegetation and low relative humidity will increase fire danger conditions this afternoon and evening across north and central Georgia. A Fire Danger Statement is in effect for all of north and central Georgia. Outdoor burning is strongly discouraged, as fires could get out of control.

Persistent high pressure and dry conditions across the Southeast will make for continued very low rain chances this week. The potential for rainfall will increase across parts of the area this coming weekend, though amounts will be light.

Long-range forecast models are suggesting a large-scale weather pattern supportive of rainfall across parts of the eastern U.S. (including Georgia) near the end of the month. That said, not all of the state will necessarily see rainfall, and it will take an extended period of ample rainfall to put a dent in the drought.

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