Very Warm Week Ahead

Dry Weather Continues

Tonight

Tomorrow

Dry vegetation and low relative humidity will increase fire danger conditions on this afternoon and evening across parts of north and central Georgia. A Red Flag Warning is in effect for far north Georgia where wind gusts of 20-25 mph are forecast. Outdoor burning is strongly discouraged, as fires could get out of control.

Very warm temperatures are expected across the Southeast this week due to persistent high pressure over the area. Highs will be in the 80s to low 90s throughout the week. Current drought conditions will worsen given the lack of rainfall.

The drying effects of a persistent high pressure system over the Southeast will create very low rain chances for most of this week.

Here are the forecast low temperatures and precipitation chances for tonight.

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