Yes, and there are some improvements
to the models this morning when
it comes to our winter weather
potential for the end of the week.
Yes, good because of course models were
kind of thinking of more that wintry
mix ice problem and we don't want ice.
No, we do not want that. Ice is awful.
Snow is fun in some way shape or form
and then. But ice is all around awful,
so that's a whole different story.
It is. It's tougher to drive in,
you can't see it on the road.
So we're going to take you through.
Everything you need to know
in the next couple of minutes.
We're quickly very quickly going
to cover what's going on today,
and we have quite a few models
to take you through,
so everyone just buckle up and try
and pay as much attention as you can,
'cause it is going to be a lot
of information thrown at you over
the next couple of minutes here.
30 in the city of Dublin you're looking
live on top of the Fred Roberts building.
As you're getting ready to head out the door,
have your coat.
You'll want to defrost the windshield
because it is below freezing in most
spots this morning. 31 in Warner Robins.
31 in Macon 33 in Montezuma.
30 in Gordon.
31 in Forsyth we're at 28 in
Cochrane and 33 in.
Sandersville areawide upper 20s, low 30s.
Through the day today it's
going to be really great,
though we'll have a wonderful afternoon,
lots of sunshine temperatures today
will climb into the low 60s overall,
a really wonderful looking Wednesday.
On the way.
We'll stay though in the 30s through
around 9:00 o'clock this morning.
That's going to encompass just about
all of your morning drive today,
so you will need to bundle
up for the morning.
By the afternoon,
though,
maybe you could just have a light
jacket and that'll about do it
through the overnight hours.
We'll continue our increase
in cloud cover wind today.
We'll pull out of the southwest.
That's going to give us that
warmer afternoon.
A couple of extra clouds as we pull in
some more moisture off of the Gulf of Mexico,
and then that will also help build
clouds through the overnight hours,
leaving us a little warmer tomorrow.
Now tomorrow we bring in our cold front.
This is simply going to bring us rain
as we head into early tomorrow morning.
Here's 4:00 o'clock and as
we head towards 7-8.
So yes,
this is going to be that commute time.
For a lot of you heading out
to work in school,
you could run into some rain,
so just give yourself a few
extra minutes tomorrow,
not for the defrosting the windshield,
but for the potential for a few
showers out there for the morning.
Wind is also going to pick up a
bit along this front so we could
see wind anywhere between 5:00 to
10:00 mph. Nothing blustery,
but just something to keep in mind.
By 5:00 o'clock time,
a lot of you will be headed home.
We start to dry out,
but that front stalls along the coast.
So just to our South ELO is going
to form along this front where
it's positioned is important.
It's going to pull in a lot of moisture.
And that could lead to some problems.
We're also going to have a wedge building in.
That's going to start to usher in
that cooler air from the north
off the Appalachian Mountains.
What you're looking at is the graph.
This model, yes, did do very,
very well with our last system.
However, this hasn't really had a lot of
runs yet when it comes to the solution
for our potential winter weather.
It's just going out far enough to
even give us a solution for Friday.
Now you can see here this pink color.
This is hinting as we head
into Friday afternoon,
maybe even into Friday evening.
We could start to get.
That wintry mix any kind of snow
looks to stay to our north.
Now I will tell you,
this is the most aggressive
of all of the models.
All of our other models are global
models are starting to trend
a little bit away from having
any kind of winter potential.
I'm going to take you through
that in just a couple of seconds
here through eight o'clock notice.
Still,
the potential for some wintry
mix if the graph plays out,
we're worrying about ice and
potentially an accumulation of ice.
If you are north and east of Macon
now as we look at the NAMM model,
the North American model.
This thinks maybe a wintry mix Friday
night into very early Saturday
morning and then it's out of the way,
so again,
less aggressive when it comes to
that potential for wintry mix or ice.
The GFS which was bringing a fairly
widespread chance for wintry mix yesterday,
now really showing maybe just some
in our Eastern counties as we head
into late Friday and Saturday.
So again,
most models trending away from
that winter weather potential,
but we're still going to keep a close
eye on the graph, because if that
does continue to trend that way,
we'll have to worry about
ice right now we're looking at
a wintry mix, maybe north and
east of Macon. And then
we'll be dry by Sunday.
