.SHORT TERM...
(Today through Thursday)
Issued at 326 AM EST Wed Nov 12 2025

Another cold start to the day with temperatures in the upper 20s to
30s across the area. Lighter winds and clear skies overnight have
allowed the nocturnal boundary layer to get set up and temperatures
have dropped like a rock. Surface high pressure responsible for our
cold air the past few days continues to slide to the south of the
CWA through today in response to a quick hitting clipper system over
the Northeast. Winds out of the SW will bring a return of some
surface moisture and warmer temperatures into the area as Gulf
modulated air is able to creep in. Highs this afternoon will be in
the 50s and 60s areawide.

Tonight will see that quick hitting system move to the east. Upper
level ridge will begin to slowly slide this way and warming will
continue under broad surface high pressure. Winds will move to the
NW thanks to the core of the surface high still influencing our area
moving to the southwest of us. This will mean air may be a bit
drier. Temperatures will warm into the 60s and 70s by the afternoon,
continuing our warming trend that will persist into part of the long
term forecast.

.LONG TERM...
(Thursday night through Tuesday)
Issued at 326 AM EST Wed Nov 12 2025

Surface high pressure in place and a building ridge to our west will
result in mostly dry and tranquil weather conditions for North and
Central Georgia through the weekend. Our next potential for rain now
looks to hold off until next week as long term guidance continues to
note inconsistencies in timing/extent of this next system. Latest
guidance has trended drier for the start of next week keeping any
rain at bay until Tuesday. Warm and slightly above normal
temperatures are forecast for the next 5-7 days. Forecast highs will
range from the 60s in the mountains to mid-
/upper 70s elsewhere. Forecast lows start off in the low 40s (upper
30s in the mountains) trending back into the 50s by the weekend.
