Rain will continue pushing out of Northwest Georgia this morning as a cold front moves away from the region. Behind it, high pressure will build in across Tennessee and North Georgia, bringing drier and cooler conditions through Friday.
Highs today and Friday will mainly stay in the 70s, with 60s possible in the Northeast Georgia mountains. Overnight lows tonight will fall into the 40s and 50s.
The dry break will not last long. Another system developing near the Texas Gulf Coast will move toward the Southeast by the start of the weekend, bringing scattered showers and a few weak thunderstorms Saturday. Rain chances will increase Sunday as warmer, more humid air returns ahead of another cold front.
Forecasters say severe weather is not expected at this time, but showers and non-severe thunderstorms may continue into Sunday night.
Cooler, drier air returns early next week. A few showers may linger Monday morning before conditions turn breezy and dry. Highs Monday and Tuesday will be in the low to mid 70s, with temperatures warming back into the 80s by Wednesday.
