MACON, Georgia (41NBC/WMGT) – Cloudy skies and ample rain odds will persist this week.

This Evening

Rain has been ongoing around Middle Georgia through much of today, and more will be possible through the evening and into tonight. A Flood Watch is in effect for all of Middle Georgia until 8 PM EDT tomorrow evening. Severe weather is not expected save for flash flood concerns.

Overnight lows should be in the mid 60s for most of the region accompanied by light and variable winds.

Tomorrow

Another overcast day is likely Tuesday with plenty of rain odds throughout the day. A few pockets of sunshine will be possible however the odds are against it. Highs will likely be in the upper 70s and lower 80s, however rain could limit those in some areas. Wind will be light and variable. As mentioned above, severe weather is not expected, however flash flooding will be possible in areas that see repeated storm activity.

Overnight some rain will likely continue as skies stay cloudy. Lows should largely be in the mid to upper 60s accompanied by light wind from the east-northeast.

Wednesday and Beyond

Skies will remain mostly cloudy with more than half the region likely to see storms again throughout the day. Rain odds will remain elevated through the end of the work week, however a gradual warming trend is anticipated to lead into the weekend. As of now there are no dry days in the current 7 day forecast.

Watching the Tropics

Tropical Storm Dexter has formed in the Atlantic Basin but poses no threat to the USA as it will track to the northeast and stay over open water. There are two other areas to watch, however, with one having 30% odds for development off the coast of Georgia/The Carolinas and the other further east in the Atlantic with 50% odds to develop. Both those odds are over the next 7 days; nothing is anticipated in the short term at this time.
