The National Weather Service in Peachtree City, Georgia says we will see a slight rebound in temperatures this week, providing residents of Northwest Georgia a brief respite from the recent winter weather and before this coming weekend’s anticipated rain.
With high pressure settling over the southeastern United States, temperatures are expected to rise to seasonal levels, reaching highs in the 40s, 50s, and even the low 60s as the work week progresses. While this warming trend is welcome news, residents should be prepared for gusty winds throughout the week. A weak upper-level disturbance will bring increased wind speeds, with gusts ranging between 15 to 20 mph expected.
High temperatures will be in the 40-50 degree range and lows overnight will be in the teens to mid-20’s until week’s end.
However, forecasters are closely monitoring an approaching weather system set to arrive toward the end of the week. While initial reports suggest this system will primarily bring rain, any potential frozen precipitation is likely to remain well north of Georgia’s northern borders. But, the cooler air in place will mean forecasters will be watching this weekend’s weather system closely.
