Forecast Discussion

Warmer temperatures finally make a return to Athens throughout the week, but drab conditions and rain are anticipated. Southerly/southwesterly flow will advect warm air into the region, with highs reaching into the 50s today and tomorrow before we peak back into the 70s on Thursday. Today will be sunny, but clouds move in tonight along with a small chance for some rain showers across the area. Clouds remain throughout the rest of the week with intermediate rain chances until our next system impacts us Friday, ushering in a rainy and dreary first weekend back from spring break.
