We start a short-lived warm-up, more clouds, maybe rain

Middle Georgia (41NBC/WMGT) – The weather today remains chilly with a high of 49. For those of you who hated December and are loving this change in temperatures, you have a lot to be happy about with this forecast.

However, I know there are those of you out there who want it warmer, and you’ll get it: the high tomorrow will be around 57, and then we’ll get into the 60s by Friday and through the weekend. Overnight lows rise to the 40s by Thursday night.

Clouds are also on the increase, though it’ll still be mostly sunny today. I’m also putting a slight chance of rain in the forecast on Friday, though it looks like the rain won’t be widespread and will be mostly light.

On Sunday, I’m forecasting a higher chance of rain, though it’s just at 30 percent at the moment. I’m not expecting severe weather, either. 

The biggest thing with Sunday’s rain, though? It’ll be followed by a much chillier pattern next week, which models are suggesting will last a while. We’ll bring back 40s for highs Monday, and it remains to be seen how long that’ll last. Winter lovers rejoice!
