It looks like we will see some of the coolest temperatures of the season by the middle of this week. Dry conditions will continue in Northwest Georgia through Friday. Rain is not expected for several days. No tropical activity is anticipated in the Atlantic basin, but a strong shortwave system will move through the Midwest and eastern states early next week, with below-normal temperatures. Frost advisories are in place for southern Fannin County and Northeastern Georgia valleys.  The National Weather Service says that the average first fall freeze in Northeast Georgia occurs around October 12th.  Here in Northwest Georgia, the average frost date is normally between October 21-October 31.  While we might not get below freezing this coming week, cooler mornings are expected with morning low temperatures around 35 degrees by midweek.
