National Weather Service forecast

Sunday: Sunny, with a high near 31. West wind around 10 mph, with gusts as high as 20 mph.

Sunday night: Mostly clear, with a low around 18. West wind around 5 mph becoming calm.

Monday: Mostly sunny, with a high near 41. West wind between 5 and 10 mph, with gusts as high as 15 mph.

Monday night: A chance of flurries. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 26. West wind between 5 and 10 mph.

 

Northeast Georgia should be thawed out soon.

While a few light snow flurries could fall Monday night as some clouds move in, no accumulation is expected, according to the National Weather Service.

With sunny skies and highs around 30 forecast for today, most of the remaining snow and ice brought on by last week’s winter weather should melt, aided by a strong northwesterly wind, said Kent McMullen, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service’s Peachtree City office.

"The shaded areas will probably remain a little icy until Monday," McMullen said.

Temperatures will still remain unseasonably cold tonight, with temperatures in the mid to upper teens.

But it should get warmer as the week goes on. By Wednesday, high temperatures could be back in the 50s.

The next chance of rain is Saturday, when temperatures should be in the 40s, the weather service said.
