Forecast Discussion

A high pressure system at the surface will keep conditions pleasant and dry overnight and into Saturday. An approaching cold front will bring a chance for rain starting Saturday afternoon and usher in storms late Saturday and into Sunday. An upper level trough will also move into the area Sunday, aiding in storm formation. These storms will move to the east by Sunday night. The Athens region could see around an inch of rain over the weekend, which will increase the chance for localized flooding. After the cold front passes, the work week will likely start out pleasant and dry.
