.KEY MESSAGES...

- Though isolated to widely scattered rainfall is possible Sunday
  into early week, the best rain chances hold off until midweek
  next week.

.SHORT TERM...
(This afternoon through Saturday)
Issued at 225 PM EDT Fri May 15 2026

Mostly clear and dry conditions will continue through Saturday as
mid-level flow trends quasi-zonal and surface high pressure slides
eastward. Moisture will begin to rebound more solidly as surface
winds shift to the south (dewpoints progged to rise from the lower
40s today to the 50s to lower 60s tomorrow), which will preclude any
meaningful fire weather conditions from being met.

Highs this afternoon will be very pleasant, in the upper 70s to
lower 80s. Saturday will be several degrees warmer (both morning and
afternoon): starting off in the mid-50s, and rising into the mid-to-
upper 80s areawide, with 90 not out of the question for portions of
far southeast central Georgia.

.LONG TERM...
(Sunday morning through next Thursday)
Issued at 225 PM EDT Fri May 15 2026

The forecast area will be situated on the western periphery of the
Atlantic ridge to start the long-term period. Deep southerly flow
will lead to substantial moisture return by Sunday, with PWATs
surging into the 1-1.5" range. As such, PoPs have trended upward on
Sunday with scattered diurnal convection favored before diminishing
after sunset.

This summer-like pattern sticks around during the early week with
mainly dry and warm conditions Monday into Tuesday. While both
Monday and Tuesday afternoons could be punctuated by isolated to
widely scattered convection in this environment, the more sustained
increase in rain chances/coverage will hold off until midweek.

By Wednesday, a cold front will be making progress southeastward
toward the forecast area, providing a bigger impetus for increased
rain chances. While timing is inexact at this juncture, this front
looks to slowly push across the state from Wednesday into Thursday,
with PoPs maximized during this time frame. While any rainfall is
certainly appreciated, this will not be a "drought-busting" type
event by any means.

Temperatures remain primarily 5-8 degrees above normal with highs
largely in the upper 80s to lower 90s and lows in the 60s.
