Rain is on the move in Georgia, trailing a cold front that plans to clear out by this afternoon. Expect steady showers with a few breaks until the front pushes through, giving us a one-two punch of rain and plummeting temperatures.
🌡️ What’s Happening: Cold weather has finally hit Georgia, but it is bringing a day of rain along with it. The drop will be fast once the front sweeps in:
• Morning rain and a cloudy sky will clear out as temps nosedive behind the front.
• Friday dawns brisk, but afternoon highs will hit a seasonal 68-70 degrees.
🌤️ The Weekend’s Outlook: Crisp mornings and mild afternoons should be the name of the game this weekend, with early lows in the 40s and highs in the low 70s. It’s the kind of forecast that’ll have you reaching for a jacket in the morning and forgetting it by lunch — or as we like to call it, fall in Georgia.
🌀 Between the Lines: Meanwhile, all eyes are on the tropics. Tropical Depression Nineteen—likely to be named Sara—is brewing trouble for Central America and could make a move into the Gulf. If it heads north, it may put south Florida in its crosshairs, but another strong front might keep Sara out of our hair in Georgia.
