Drought Begins in Parts of the State

Potential Rain to End September?

Today

Tonight

Tomorrow

Recent dry weather has led to drought conditions in parts of western, central, and southern Georgia. Many of these areas are well below average rainfall over the past 30 days, with some places receiving as little as 10% of average. Some relief may be possible by the end of next week, where rain is currently in the forecast for some areas.

Chances are increasing in seeing some decent rainfall across north and central Georgia from a storm system that could approach the area by the middle to end of next week. This could provide some relief for the building drought conditions. Uncertainty remains, so please continue to monitor the forecast.

High temperatures and rain chances for today across north and central Georgia.

Low temperatures and rain chances for tonight across north and central Georgia.

Temperature and precipitation chances for tomorrow across north and central Georgia.
