Residents of Northwestl Georgia can expect another day of warm temperatures, with highs reaching the mid-80s; significant cloud cover will likely keep temperatures from soaring even higher. A weather system approaching from the west is bringing increased cloud cover today, particularly in northern Georgia. The chance of rain will significantly increase across northern Georgia on Monday as a front stalls to the north. Forecasters are predicting that Monday afternoon will see the potential for scattered storms across northern Georgia as the front approaches and surface-based instability builds. While severe weather is not anticipated due to a lack of wind shear, a few strong storms could briefly develop before fading after sunset. The extended forecast anticipates the stalled front bringing rain to northern Georgia Monday night and Tuesday. With the low-pressure system remaining to the north, the front is expected to linger across Northwest Georgia, leading to continued rainfall along that boundary. Beyond Tuesday, expect daily rain chances throughout the week, with the possibility of afternoon thunderstorms driven by diurnal heating. Rainfall totals from the Monday/Tuesday system are currently forecast to be around 1 inch.
