You probably noticed the stickiness meter ratcheting up a few notches today as dewpoints well into the 60s surged back into North Georgia.

North Georgia and Atlanta Metro Video Forecast: June 6, 2022

A dry and seasonal Sunday is expected for North Georgia and the Atlanta Metro. Temperatures will climb back into the mid to upper 80s. Luckily, dewpoints are still pleasant for this time of the year so it won’t feel too sticky.

The stickiness meter starts to increase for the workweek with dewpoints climbing back into the 60s. This will make it a touch uncomfortable during the afternoon hours and allow for isolated storms each afternoon. Temperatures for highs will be in the upper 80s to around 90 with lows in the mid to upper 60s for the workweek.

Two better rain chances arrive Wednesday and then Friday into Saturday. Still some questions on the timing and placement of the heaviest rain but right now it looks like North Georgia could see at least half an inch of rain over the next 7-days with possible amounts exceeding an inch. Great news for gardeners!

North Georgia and Atlanta Metro Video Forecast: June 5, 2022

A pleasant, seasonal weekend is shaping up for north Georgia and the Atlanta Metro thanks to a weak cold front. This cold front continues to slowly ooze south leaving behind a direr northwesterly flow, dropping temperatures and dewpoints. It’ll feel quite a bit more comfortable Saturday and Sunday morning before temperatures do start to creep back up on Sunday. Overall, temperatures stay in the low to mid-80s Saturday afternoon after starting out in the upper 50s and lower 60s. But temperatures Sunday afternoon do get closer to the upper 80s. Humidity increases to start the workweek with temperatures flirting with 90 along with isolated storm chances for the afternoons.

North Georgia and Atlanta Metro Video Forecast: June 3, 2022

Tropical Storm Warnings have been issued for the southern half of the Florida Peninsula ahead of a tropical system that will likely become Tropical Storm Alex over the next few hours.

The system is currently in the southern Gulf of Mexico and has been designated Potential Tropical Cyclone One, which has allowed for the issuing of Tropical Storm Warnings in Florida. This tropical system has observed a strengthening low pressure with an increase in showers and thunderstorms associated with the area of low pressure.

Further strengthening is expected throughout Friday and Alex should be designated late Friday. The system will then move ENE toward south Florida over the weekend, making landfall Saturday afternoon south of Tampa.

Upon landfall, Alex should remain a weak tropical storm due to enough wind shear over the Gulf preventing rapid intensifying, but regardless of the intensity, widespread heavy rain and gusty winds are expected for the southern half of the Florida Peninsula where the Tropical Storm Warnings are in effect.

Rain arrives Friday night and continues throughout Saturday. A widespread 3-8 inches is expected with isolated amounts around 10-12 inches are possible. This could lead to areas of flooding.
