.DISCUSSION...



Good morning. Surface high pressure centered to the northeast of 

Georgia will dam cooler air along the lee side of the Appalachians, 

which will spread across north Georgia on Saturday. Within this 

cooler air, temperatures at the site will start the morning around 

58 degrees and rise into the mid 60s by noon. Temperatures will 

struggle to get above 65 throughout the afternoon. Winds will be 

from the east throughout the day, ranging from 6-9 mph with gusts of 

15-18 mph. Scattered rain showers in the morning and early afternoon 

are forecast to become more widespread after 2 PM. At this time, 

rainfall totals through the daytime are forecast to be about 0.1 

inch, with higher totals anticipated to remain to the south. The 

cooler air over north Georgia will also serve to limit instability 

in the morning and early afternoon, though isolated thunderstorms 

will become possible into the mid afternoon into the evening. Please 

feel free to contact us if you have any further questions or 

concerns.
