Marine Weather and Tide Forecast for Rest Haven, GA

SHORT TERM
(Today through Tuesday)
Issued at 220 AM EDT Mon Sep 7 2026

Cooler, Breezy, and Mostly Dry Through Tuesday:

In the wake of a frontal boundary, a wedge-like pattern will setup across most of north and central Georgia today. Breezy easterly winds will usher in a 'cooler' airmass, which will provide some much needed relief from the recent stretch of heat. High temperatures will struggle to climb above the low to mid 80s for most of north GA, with upper 80s across the rest of the area.
While the airmass will be cooler and a little drier, there will still be enough moisture and instability to support isolated to scattered showers and weak thunderstorms during the day. Tonight into Tuesday, a mid-level ridge over the south-central US will expand east over our area. Subsidence from the ridge combined with even drier air moving in within the breezy easterly flow will result in very low rain chances. Temperatures in the morning will be around the upper 60s, and then climb to the mid to upper 80s in the afternoon.

LONG TERM
(Tuesday night through Sunday)
Issued at 220 AM EDT Mon Sep 7 2026

Broad midlevel ridging extending across the Gulf Coast states midweek will begin flattening as a trough digs into the Great Lakes region. By Thursday, the core of the ridge will have shifted well westward into the southwestern US with troughing digging farther southeastward by the week's end.

Meanwhile, at the surface, easterly flow associated with an early- week CAD setup will transition to the southwest by Thursday in response to the surface high departing eastward and a cold front dropping into the Ohio Valley. As such, PoPs look to increase most appreciably by Thursday into Friday as moisture is pulled back northward in advance of the approaching cold front.
This frontal boundary will provide impetus for increased convective coverage heading into next weekend.

As far as temperatures are concerned, the initial early week "cooldown" to more normal levels for September will revert back to a warming trend through late week. Above-normal highs in the 90s make a return with heat index values likely creeping back into the upper 90s to near 100 for many.
