LONG TERM
(Friday morning through next Tuesday)
Issued at 131 PM EST Wed Feb 11 2026

As the long term period begins on Friday, Georgia will be positioned underneath northwesterly upper level flow on the leading edge of a dampening ridge. Surface high pressure will meanwhile be moving from the Ohio Valley region towards the Mid-Atlantic coast. The combination of these factors will promote benign weather and dry conditions across the forecast area. After beginning the morning in the mid 30s to near 40, temperatures will climb to highs in the 60s across the majority of the area (with 50s in the higher elevations of far north Georgia). Minimum RH values on Friday afternoon are currently forecast to range from 25-30%, though dewpoint guidance trending drier could lead to critical fire danger thresholds being reached in some locations.

Friday night into Saturday, a southern stream shortwave will move across the Southwest CONUS towards Texas, at which point the upper level flow will become more zonal and eventually shift to southwesterly. Dewpoints will be on the rise over the course of the day, climbing into the upper 30s to mid 40s by the end of the day.
Scattered showers are anticipated to begin as early as Saturday afternoon as the system quickly enters the Southeast. Model guidance remains consistent in indicating the development of a surface low over the Lower Mississippi River Valley region to the immediate east of the shortwave by early Sunday morning. Disagreement remains with respect of the evolution and movement of this low during the daytime on Sunday, with some solutions advancing a stronger low northeastward towards the Carolinas and others sinking a weaker low southeastward towards northern Florida. In either of these cases, the center of the surface low will advance through the forecast area. Ample moisture (dewpoints in the 50s and PWATs between 1.2- 1.5") combined with broad forcing ahead of the low will contribute to widespread showers on Sunday. Rainfall amounts are forecast to range from 1.5 to 2 inch with this system, though locally heavier amounts will be possible, and which locations see the heaviest rain will depend on the track of the low and how fast it tracks through the area.

Modest instability during the daytime on Sunday is anticipated to allow for isolated to scattered thunderstorms in portions of central Georgia during the daytime on Sunday. An isolated strong storm cannot be ruled out, but the threat for severe weather remains low at this time. A weak wedge spreading into north Georgia will keep temperatures cooler in these locations, which is expected to largely inhibit thunderstorm chances further north. Precipitation will come to an end from northwest to southeast Sunday night into Monday morning, though this timing will also depend on the low's track and movement. A more southerly track will favor a later end to precipitation compared to a northerly track. After the low exits, broad ridging will slide across the east CONUS early next week, with benign weather and slightly warmer than average temperatures expected Monday and Tuesday.
