Forecast Discussion

Currently aloft, there is a slight ridging pattern associated with high pressure at the surface that is allowing dry and calm weather to persist for the Athens region. These conditions are expected to remain throughout the week. As the weekend approaches, the weather pattern in the upper levels are expected to shift as a trough will make its way over the Midwest. At the surface on Sunday, guidance is suggesting a cold front to pass increasing the chance for showers and thunderstorms. Temperatures should cool off for a couple days after the front passes.
