Conditions are nice and mild this morning with 6:30 AM temperatures running in the low to mid 50s. A warm, but wet day is on tap as a cold front is expected to move through the region this evening. Temperatures ahead of the front should top out around 60°. Southerly winds around 15 mph possible, with gusts up to 30 mph possible as well.
Heavy rain should move into the region by 11 AM, though a few isolated showers may be possible before this. The rain will likely stick around the rest of the afternoon, moving out by 10 PM. Below is simulated radar for the remainder of the day.
Rain should come to an end early in the overnight period. Lows will drop to around 39° by Sunday morning. Temperatures may continue to drop until 10 AM due to stout northwest flow aloft.
Chilly Sunday
Northwest flow will limit temperatures on Sunday to the upper 40s to low 50s, despite mostly sunny skies. The north wind will bring a bit of a chill to the air, so be sure to put on that sweater! We should dip back below freezing Sunday night and Monday morning.
Chillier Monday
Monday will be quite the raw day across the region. Clouds will increase throughout the day, which will limit high temperatures. Northwest winds will increase some at the surface, leaving us with highs right around 40°, which is not ideal. The GFS says we’ll see temperatures around 42° at 3 PM.
Conditions become a bit more winter-like overnight Monday and Tuesday morning as lows drop into the low 20s.
Looking Ahead
Some wintry mischief looks possible late next week. As of now, it looks like a rain to wintry mix to snow event may be possible Thursday into Friday. It’s a bit too soon to talk accumulations of any kind, but treat this as a “head’s up” that some wintry precipitation may be possible late week.
That should wrap up this forecast. Thanks for stopping by and be sure to check out our live weather twitter feed @wxornotBG and Landon Hampton on Facebook. Have a great weekend!
