Fire Weather Planning Forecast for North and Central Georgia
National Weather Service Peachtree City GA
331 AM EDT Tue Mar 26 2019

.DISCUSSION...

Lingering moisture will remain across the area today, leading to a
chance for some light showers during the afternoon and evening.
Relative humidity values will be well outside of critical thresholds
today, with minimum RH values between 50-60 percent across the
majority of the forecast area. Drier conditions will return starting
Wednesday and remain through the end of the work week. Significantly
lower RH is expected on Wednesday, with minimums dropping into the
25-35 percent range across much of the area, with the exception of
east-central Georgia, where values are expected to be 20-25 percent.
Mainly E winds Wednesday could be breezy through the daytime, at
10-15 mph and gusts up to 20 mph across central and portions of
north Georgia.
