Special Weather Statement | Georgia Weather 6 PM

Good evening! I'm Aaron Jolly. And welcome to the Georgia Weather Podcast for Tuesday, February 24th. Folks — Georgia is absolutely **soaking** tonight. If you've been anywhere near a window today, you already know. We've had rain moving through since this morning. And it's not done with us yet. Here's what's happening right now. Down in Atlanta, you're sitting at about 58 degrees with steady rain and gusty winds. That's **warm** for late February. And that warmth is part of the problem. A strong low-pressure system is pulling Gulf moisture straight up through the state. And it's dumping on just about everybody. South Georgia around Valdosta and Albany? You've already picked up over an inch of rain today. And you're seeing some rumbles of thunder mixed in. Nothing severe, but it's loud enough to get the dog's attention. Macon and the middle part of the state are getting hammered too — heavy downpours are cutting visibility on I-75, so if you're heading out, **slow down** and give yourself extra space. Up toward Dalton and the North Georgia mountains, temperatures are cooler — mid-40s — and you'll want to watch for some patchy fog developing overnight as that rain interacts with the cooler air. Blue Ridge could see things get **soupy** by morning. Here's your heads-up for the rest of the week. This rain clears out by Wednesday afternoon. And then — oh, you're gonna love this — we get a gorgeous stretch. Thursday and Friday are looking sunny with highs near 65 in Atlanta. Perfect weather for finally getting outside and shaking off the cabin fever. Savannah pushes into the low 70s by Friday. That's practically spring knocking on the door. But don't get too comfortable. Another system could bring showers back by the weekend. Classic Georgia February — can't make up its mind. One quick note: with all this rain, creeks and streams are running high. Stay away from flooded roads tonight. It's never worth the risk, no matter how shallow it looks. If you're heading out in the morning — that post-rain chill is real. That's your forecast — we'll be back tomorrow. Take care, folks!

Special Weather Statement | Georgia Weather Noon

Good afternoon! I'm Aaron Jolly. Welcome to the Georgia Weather Podcast for Tuesday, February 24th. Folks, February woke up with teeth this morning. Twenty three degrees overnight. The kind of cold that makes your car seat feel like a block of ice. But that sun is doing serious work right now.. And the afternoon is shaping up nicely. Let's cruise through the state. Metro Atlanta, you're climbing from 37 degrees around 11 AM to a pleasant 53 degrees by 4 PM. Northwest winds shift westerly around noon. Gusts hit 15 miles an hour near 10 AM, so hold onto that coffee. Tonight turns mostly cloudy. Low near 39. Slide down to the coast. Savannah and Brunswick start at 40 degrees around 1 AM, then warm to 56 degrees by 11 AM. Same wind shift at noon. Partly cloudy tonight with a low near 39. Not bad at all. Over in Augusta, you're seeing sunshine all day. High of 54 degrees around 5 PM. Winds swing from southwest to south near 8 PM. Partly cloudy overnight, dropping to 38 by 1 AM. Now two quick alerts. Northeast Georgia, humidity drops to around 20 percent this afternoon. That's dangerously dry. Check with local authorities before any outdoor burning. And southeast Georgia, a Frost Advisory runs from 2 AM to 8 AM Wednesday. Temps dipping to 32 degrees. Cover those sensitive plants tonight. Looking ahead, Wednesday warms into the low to mid 60s. Enjoy that.. Because Thursday and Friday a cold front rolls in with widespread rain and a few thunderstorms. You could see an inch to an inch and a half of rainfall. Then the weekend clears out beautifully. Saturday near 67 degrees. Sunday pushing 72. That sounds like patio weather to me. Oh. And we're gaining over two minutes of daylight today. Sunrise at 7:13, sunset at 6:30. Spring is tiptoeing closer. If this podcast helps you plan your week, a quick rating means the world. That's your forecast — we'll be back tomorrow. Take care!

Winds ease from northwest to west around 9 A.M. Over in eastern Georgia, you'll hit 54 degrees by 5 P.M. Light winds shift west around 7 A.M. Sunshine everywhere. Gorgeous afternoon. But there's a catch nobody's talking about. Between 11 A.M. And 7 P.M., humidity crashes to 20 percent across north and central Georgia. Fire Danger Statements are active. One stray spark and you've got a problem. Skip the burn piles today. Tonight, clouds roll in. Atlanta settles to 39 degrees. Eastern Georgia dips to 37. The coast holds at 39. Nothing dramatic. Just a quiet transition night. Wednesday gets interesting. Atlanta pushes to 62 degrees with southwest gusts to 25 miles an hour. The coast warms to 67 degrees. Eastern Georgia hits 66. Spring is knocking. Then Thursday.. Rain finally shows up. A cold front drags showers across Atlanta by morning. Highs reach 67 degrees. The coast could touch 72 degrees before the storms arrive. Thunderstorms are possible along the coastline. Friday stays wet, especially south. Scattered storms linger. The weekend though? That's your reward. Saturday brings sunshine and upper 60s statewide.

Freeze Watch | Georgia Weather 6 PM

Good evening! I'm Aaron Jolly. And welcome to the Georgia Weather Podcast for Monday, February 23rd. Folks, tonight's story has a little bit of everything. Fire, ice. And a plot twist nobody asked for. Let's dig in. Right now a Red Flag Warning is active across south and east central Georgia until 7 P.M. Tonight. Winds gusting to 30 miles an hour. Humidity below 25 percent. Drought conditions underneath all of it. If you're even thinking about burning anything outdoors.. Don't. One spark is all it takes. And then the temperature flips the script on you. Freeze warnings blanket southwest Georgia overnight. Lows near 23 degrees. That's cold enough to crack exposed pipes and hurt tender crops. Protect your plants. Bring the pets inside. Down in metro Atlanta, you topped out around 41 degrees today. Tonight you're dropping to 25. That wind makes it feel even sharper. Head southeast toward the coast and Savannah saw a milder 50 degrees, but gusty northwest winds kept it from feeling comfortable. Lows there settle near 27. Over in eastern Georgia, Augusta and the surrounding areas hit 49 today. Overnight? Down to 26. Now here's where it gets interesting. Tomorrow a southwest wind kicks in and everything warms up fast. Atlanta jumps to 53 degrees. The coast and eastern Georgia push to 54. Fire danger still lingers though, so keep those burn piles on hold. The real turn comes Thursday. A slow moving front drags in widespread rain. Thunderstorms are possible Friday, especially north of I-85. Some spots could pick up over an inch. Looking at the rest of the week, the first half stays dry and mild. Wednesday feels downright pleasant. Then the rain takes over Thursday into Friday. But Saturday.. Sunshine returns and temperatures flirt with 70 degrees. February pretending to be April. Layer up tonight. Your pipes and your pets will thank you in the morning. That's your forecast — we'll be back tomorrow. Take care!

Good afternoon! I'm Aaron Jolly. Welcome to the Georgia Weather Podcast for Monday, February 23rd. Folks, step outside right now and you're feeling 29 degrees. Frost on the windshield, breath hanging in the air. But here's what makes today interesting.. Winter and spring are arm wrestling across the state. And neither one wants to let go. Down in Metro Atlanta, you're only climbing to 40 degrees around 3 PM. Northwest winds at 10 to 15 miles an hour, gusting to 30. That wind is no joke.

Winds shift from northwest to north by 8 PM. But overnight? Lows crash to 26. That's cold enough to catch you off guard after last week's taste of spring. Now the coast.

Freeze Watch | Georgia Weather 6 AM

Good morning! I'm Aaron Jolly. And welcome to the Georgia Weather Podcast. It's Monday, February 23rd. And folks.. Winter just sent us a late invoice. Step outside at 5 A.M. And you're feeling 25 degrees in Metro Atlanta. Not the actual temperature. That's the wind chill. The thermometer reads 26, but northwest gusts around 12 miles an hour are stealing every bit of warmth off your skin. That's the kind of cold that makes your coffee steam disappear before it reaches your nose. Down in Metro Atlanta, you'll climb to 41 degrees by 3 P.M. Under sunny skies. Sounds pleasant until those gusts hit 30 miles an hour. Your trash cans are going on an adventure today. Drift southeast toward Savannah and the coast. You're in better shape. Highs reach 48 degrees around 4 P.M. With steady northwest winds between 14 and 17 miles an hour. Still breezy, still chilly, but manageable. Over in eastern Georgia, you'll see 49 degrees by 3 P.M. Winds are lighter there, 9 to 15 miles an hour. The warmest spot in the state today. And it's still not cracking 50. Tonight the bottom drops out. Clear skies and calm winds mean lows in the mid 20s everywhere. Coastal Georgia sinks to 28. Atlanta and eastern Georgia hit 25. Cover those outdoor plants or say goodbye. One more thing to watch. Fire danger is elevated today. Dry air plus gusty winds equals trouble. Be careful with anything that sparks. Now the plot twist for this week. Tuesday warms into the low 50s statewide. Wednesday pushes into the 60s with clouds building. Then Thursday and Friday.. Rain rolls in with highs near 70 degrees. We go from frostbite weather to practically spring in four days. By the weekend, you're looking at lingering showers but temperatures flirting with 70. I'll be tracking that rain all week. Charge your phone and keep an umbrella handy by Wednesday night. That's your forecast — we'll be back tomorrow. Take care!

Georgia Weather: 02-22-2026

Good afternoon! I'm Aaron Jolly. And welcome to the Georgia Weather Podcast. It's Sunday, February 22nd. And winter just kicked the door in. Folks, if you stepped outside this morning expecting that mild stretch to continue, the wind probably changed your mind real quick. A cold front barreled through overnight. And now we've got northwest gusts hitting 40 miles an hour across most of the state. Wind Advisories are up statewide through this evening. These gusts are snapping limbs, especially where yesterday's rain left the ground soft. Secure your trash cans. Check your patio furniture. If you're driving anything tall, grip that wheel tight. Now the temperatures. This is where it stings. Down along the coast near Savannah, you're topping out around 57 degrees near noon. Sounds decent until you watch it nosedive to 33 by early Monday morning. Factor in those winds and it'll feel like 23. Slide over to eastern Georgia and you're hitting 55 around 11 A.M. Then crashing to 30 by 5 A.M. Monday. Wind chill drops that to 20. Metro Atlanta? You've got the rough end of this one. High of just 46 degrees around noon, then a freefall to 25 by 7 A.M. Monday. Wind chill makes it feel like 25 degrees. That's the kind of cold that catches pipes off guard. Let those faucets drip tonight. Here's what the week looks like. Monday stays raw and blustery. Highs barely scratch the low 40s in Atlanta, upper 40s at the coast. Then Tuesday the whole script flips. Mid 50s inland, near 60 along the coast. By Wednesday you're looking at 60s statewide with that springlike warmth rolling back in. A few showers could sneak in late week, but nothing dramatic. Tonight, toss an extra blanket on the bed. Your future self will appreciate it around 3 A.M. That's your forecast — we'll be back tomorrow. Take care!

Georgia Weather: 02-22-2026

Good morning! I'm Aaron Jolly, and welcome to the Georgia Weather Podcast. It's Sunday, February 22nd, and folks, that rain from overnight? It was just the warm up act. The real show starts now. A cold front just bulldozed through the state. It brought wind that means business. We're talking gusts up to 40 miles an hour. That's enough to send your recycling bin on a solo adventure down the street. Wind advisories are up statewide. And with the ground still soaked from last night's rain, tree roots aren't gripping like they should. Secure anything loose outside before you finish that coffee. Now let's talk about what you're walking into. Down in Metro Atlanta, sunshine looks inviting but don't be fooled. You'll top out around 47 degrees near noon. Then the bottom falls out. By 5 A.M. Monday, you're at 26 degrees. Wind chill? A face stinging 25 degrees. That's cover your pipes and bring in the pets cold. Slide east toward Savannah and the coast. Rain hangs on until about 8 A.M. You'll touch 63 degrees by 25 degrees, but that's your peak. Tonight drops to 34 by 4 A.M., feeling like 24. A freeze warning kicks in Tuesday morning when temps hit 28 degrees. Gardeners, you'll want to protect those tender plants tonight. Over in eastern Georgia, a few sprinkles near 5 A.M., then sun takes over. You hit 56 degrees by 11 A.M. Before crashing to 30 by Monday morning. Northwest gusts to 22 miles an hour make it feel like 20. Here's your week ahead. Monday and Tuesday stay cold. Highs barely crack the 40s with widespread 20s at dawn. Then Wednesday delivers a plot twist. Highs jump to the mid 60s. Enjoy it, because Thursday brings rain. Possibly three quarters of an inch.

Georgia Weather: 02-21-2026

Good evening! I'm Aaron Jolly, and welcome to the Georgia Weather Podcast for Saturday, February 21st. Folks, Georgia is pulling off something ridiculous right now. The coast hit 80 degrees today. Meanwhile, Atlanta topped out at 66. And by tomorrow night? Both places will be in the twenties. That's the kind of temperature crash that makes your closet weep. Here's the deal. Down along the coast, thunderstorms are rolling in by 5 P.M. tonight. Rain gets heavy around 25 degrees A.M., dumping one to two inches. But here's the gut punch. By Sunday morning, you're waking up to 31 degrees. That's a 50 degree freefall overnight. Wind gusts hit 18 miles an hour out of the northwest Sunday, and fire weather watches go up Monday. Avoid any outdoor burning. Dry air and gusty winds mean one spark could get ugly fast. Now head inland to Atlanta. You'll feel that northwest wind shift around 25 degrees P.M. tonight. A slight rain chance sneaks in near midnight. Sunday's high struggles to reach 48 degrees with gusts to 35 miles an hour. By Sunday night? Twenty five degrees. Your pipes will want a pep talk. Over in eastern Georgia, you're seeing highs near 70 today, but rain is likely tonight with patchy fog. Sunday flips the script. Upper 40s for highs, then 29 degrees by Monday morning. Gusts to 20 miles an hour make it feel even meaner. Here's your heads up for the week ahead. Monday and Tuesday stay cold. Atlanta wakes up at 25 degrees Monday. The coast dips to 28. Wednesday brings a brief warm up back into the 60s, like Georgia remembered it's the South. Then rain returns Thursday and Friday, especially for Atlanta. One more thing. We're gaining two minutes of daylight today. Sunrise at 7:17 A.M., sunset at 6:28 P.M. Small victories. Alright. If you're enjoying these updates, share us with a friend who hates weather surprises. We've got their back. Bundle up tonight. That's your forecast — we'll be back tomorrow. Stay safe, folks!
