Fire Weather Planning Forecast for North and Central Georgia
National Weather Service Peachtree City GA
301 AM EDT Wed Mar 27 2024


.DISCUSSION...

No hazardous fire weather conditions are expected at this time.

Areas of dense fog will be possible this morning but should
begin to improve by 10am. Showers and thunderstorms will be possible
for areas across far southeast Georgia through the afternoon.
Elsewhere, drier air will move in from the northwest behind a cold
front that will make its way through the forecast area. Partly
cloudy skies are generally expected but could see periods of
clearing this afternoon behind the frontal passage. Winds will be NW
at 5 to 10 mph. Minimum relative humidities will be in the 30s and
40s outside of rainy areas.

Thursday`s post frontal airmass will produce minimum relative
humidities in the 20s where areas generally along the I-85 corridor
are expected to meet critical fire weather thresholds. NW winds will
pick up to 10 to 12 mph gusting between 25 and 30 mph for areas
across north and western central Georgia. Gusts could reach up to 35
mph along the ridge tops in areas of high terrain across north
Georgia. Mostly sunny skies are expected Thursday.

Looking ahead, upper level ridging will build in bringing warm and
dry conditions over the weekend and through the first half of the
work week.
