.SHORT TERM...
(Today through Thursday)
Issued at 306 AM EDT Wed Jun 3 2026

Last of the lingering cloud cover is pushing out of the area
leading the clear skies across north and central Georgia by the
morning. High pressure has settled in which will keep us in a dry
period through the end of the work week keeping rain chances at
near 0%. Temperatures will be the main story with cool morning
lows today and tomorrow in the low to mid 50s across much of the
area. Might even have to break out a light jacket. Highs today
will be in the mid to upper 70s across the area which when
combined with dewpoints near 50 degrees and breezy winds
(10-20mph) it will feel more like a spring day than the start to
summer.

.LONG TERM...
(Thursday night through Tuesday)
Issued at 306 AM EDT Wed Jun 3 2026

Dry and mild to start the extended periods...with precip chances
returning by day 6:

The high pressure ridge that built into the area from the short term
continues into the extended periods. By Thu night/Fri Morning the
ridge center is elongated from NE to SW across NC/SC/GA keeping a
cool dry airmass across the region for this time of year. Min Temps
Fri morning expected in the middle to upper 50s with highs Friday in
the 80s. With these temps and Min RH values mainly in the upper 30%
to lower 40% range we should be in store for a nice early june day.
This ridge continues to keep things dry through Sat but the ridge
does push offshore through Sun Morning. With the ridge moving off
the eastern seaboard it becomes more of a Bermuda Ridge and puts us
back in south to southwesterly flow Sun afternoon into Mon. The
first wave moves northward out of the Gulf Sat night into MS/AL.
This wave pushes N to NE Sunday slowly increasing PoPs across GA.
20% to 30% precip chances expected Sun afternoon/evening increasing
into the 30% to 40% range for Mon afternoon. At this time, the
models are showing a pattern that would support typical summertime
diurnally driven convention, with no widespread severe weather or
flooding threats.
