.DISCUSSION...

Good morning, Brandon. Scattered showers are ongoing across portions
of north Georgia as the morning begins, and are forecast to continue
throughout the day with 20-30 percent chances. As they are falling
from a mid-level cloud deck, showers that occur are expected to
remain light. Isolated thunderstorms will be possible this afternoon
after 1 PM. At this time, rainfall amounts are forecast to be less
than one-tenth of an inch, although locally heavier amounts may be
possible with any thunderstorms that occur. Increased cloud cover
will somewhat inhibit daytime heating over the site. Temperatures
are expected to be in the 70s through the morning and low 80s in the
afternoon, reaching a high of 83 degrees. Winds will be E at 3 mph
at the start time, shifting to SE at 3-5 mph by 11 AM, and further
to S at 5-8 mph during the afternoon. Winds will diminish to 3-5 mph
after sunset, shifting back to SE by midnight. Relative humidity
values will start the morning just under 80 percent, dropping to
below 60 percent by noon, and down to a minimum of 45 percent in the
mid to late afternoon. Please feel free to contact us if you have
any further questions or concerns.
