Southeast Georgia could see its first fall freeze inland and away from the coast this weekend, as the season’s coldest air follows a Thursday cold front, according to meteorologist Alysa Carsley.
Carsley’s forecast calls for Friday-through-Sunday highs in the upper 50s to low 60s and morning lows in the 30s to low 40s. A freeze is possible inland, but the forecast does not present it as certain.
The front could bring a few stray showers on Thursday. Through much of the workweek, afternoon temperatures are expected to reach the upper 70s, with morning lows in the 40s to lower 50s; otherwise, the forecast is quiet. Carsley says a strong high-pressure system moving south from Canada will bring Arctic air behind the front.
