.UPDATE...
Issued at 906 PM EST Sun Feb 22 2026

NW winds have slackened to some degree but will remain breezy
through at least mid-day Monday. Stratocumulus has started to fill
in across north GA this evening and is likely to remain in place
tonight potentially streaming down to the extreme north side of
the metro. Otherwise, mostly clear skies and breezy winds will
make temperatures feel quite cold tonight. Thus, a Cold Wx
Advisory remains in effect for the entire forecast area due to
wind chills ranging from 10 degrees above zero to a few degrees
below zero.

.SHORT TERM...
(This evening through Monday)
Issued at 300 PM EST Sun Feb 22 2026

Windy & Colder through Monday:

A Wind Advisory remains in effect until 7 PM this evening for all
of the County Warning Area (CWA). Sustained winds are generally
ranging from 15 to 20 mph with gusts ranging from 30 to 40 mph.
When coupled with the cooler air spilling in from the northwest,
temperatures largely feel like the 30s and 40s. Cold air advection
(CAA) will persist overnight, driving temperatures down into the
20s (with teens in the mountains). Continued gusty conditions will
make for wind chills ranging from around 15 degrees above zero to
a few degrees below zero overnight through mid-morning Monday. As
a result, a Cold Weather Advisory will be in effect from 1 AM to
10 AM Monday. While not quite as cold, Monday night into Tuesday
morning will bring wind chills of 5 to 15 degrees above zero.

Potential for Hazardous Fire Weather Conditions on Monday:

A Fire Danger Statement may be needed for tomorrow as smaller
fuels continue to dry out amid breezy conditions. While not as
gusty as today has been, sustained winds are forecast to range
from 10 to 18 mph and gusts from 20 to 28 mph. Relative humidity
forecast trends will need to be monitored, but at this time,
minimum values are forecast to stay above 25% for much of the CWA.

.LONG TERM...
(Tuesday morning through next Saturday)
Issued at 300 PM EST Sun Feb 22 2026

On Tuesday and Wednesday, the Southeast will remain under the
influence of retreating high pressure at the surface and dry,
northwesterly flow at the mid-levels. The combination of the two
will allow for continued clear and dry conditions, with moderation
of the airmass (and a shift to warm, moist, southwesterly surface
winds) allowing a stark warming trend to begin, continuing
through the end of the extended. Pre-wind shift, dewpoints on
Tuesday will still be in the teens (and perhaps even single digits
across far northeast Georgia), so care will need to be taken to
monitor critical thresholds for potential Fire Danger Statement
issuance during the afternoon. Highs on Tuesday will be in the 50s
areawide, rising into the 60s to near 70 on Wednesday. Wednesday
morning will be the coolest of the extended, dropping into the
mid-to-upper 30s. Conversely, lows Thursday morning will be warm
under insulating cloudy skies, in the low-to-mid 50s -- as much as
10 to 20 degrees above average.

Moving into Thursday, a mid-level shortwave and resultant surface
low will sweep across the Plains and into the Midwest, deepening
at it goes. An attendant surface cold front will trek
southeastward across the area late week, bringing with it our next
chances for showers and perhaps isolated thunderstorms. Global
model guidance is in disagreement regarding the strength and
placement of key surface features, but widespread rain chances
seem plausible for much of the day Thursday into Friday. Highest
rainfall totals will be skewed to the north, perhaps up to 1.5"
over 48 hours across far north Georgia.

Expect clearing and drying post-front, supportive of mild and
pleasant conditions to round off the week and start the weekend.
Highs each day Thursday through Saturday will be in the 60s to
lower 70s, and Sunday is poised to be the warmest of the extended
-- topping out in the 70s areawide. Lows each morning will be in
the upper 30s to near 50.
