The National Weather Service in Peachtree City, Georgia says Northwest Georgia will see temperatures gradually rising to approach normal levels for January. A few light showers and drizzles are forecasted to enter the area. A weak weather pattern will lead to mild temperatures, with highs moving from the mid-40s to the low 50s to near 60 by Sunday. Due to dry air, nighttime lows will stay below freezing.

Beginning this weekend, moisture will increase, raising dewpoints, especially in Northwest Georgia, where light rain showers might occur. The chances of wintry weather remain low, with temperatures mostly staying above freezing except in mountain peaks. There’s uncertainty about when these chances might begin after Sunday afternoon.

From Sunday night through Friday, cooler rain is anticipated, especially on Sunday and Monday, with some snow mix likely in some of Georgia’s higher elevations, though no significant accumulation is expected. Temperatures will remain in the 40s on Monday, with rain totals below half an inch.

Midweek temperatures may rise into the 60s in Northwest Georgia, influenced by a warm subtropical air mass. Rain chances will increase on Wednesday, but the extent of actual rainfall remains uncertain.

Overall, temperatures will gradually warm from Monday through Wednesday, with highs initially in the 50s, then reaching the 60s and possibly even some 70s. A front moving through on Wednesday will not bring an Arctic air mass, ensuring seasonable conditions.
