Forecast Discussion

For the rest of this week, we will be seeing above-average temperatures for Athens, with the highs getting into the upper 80s. It will be mostly sunny each day as well, feeling very warm and humid, due to the high-pressure system that is currently SE of us in Virginia. There will be light winds up to 5 mph coming from the West. There is a low chance of thunderstorms for this afternoon continuing into tonight and tomorrow morning. There is a cold front moving towards Athens from the NW and there will be cooler temperatures heading into the weekend, with highs near the mid-80s, and a low chance of precipitation as well. Looking further into the rest of this month, this week should be the last week with these above-average temperatures, and we should start seeing more normal, fall-like temperatures in about 10 days.
