Freezing Rain Possible Saturday
It looks like Gwinnett County could be in the middle of a battle between two weather fronts, and the result could be some freezing rain on Saturday.
After pleasant weather today and tomorrow, with highs around 60 degrees, a front approaching from the north will bring colder, dry air into our area on Thursday and Friday. By Friday, high temperatures will only be in the mid 40s.
Meanwhile, a second front is approaching from the southwest. As it travels through Texas and the gulf states, it will pick up moisture from the Gulf of Mexico and bring rain into Mississippi and Alabama on Friday, and into south Georgia on Friday.
By Saturday, things get interesting as the warm moist southern front overtakes the cold air over north Georgia. As you can see on the map to the left, freezing rain is currently expected to occur north and east of Gwinnett County. However, at this point it is really too early to tell exactly where we will have rain, and where we will have freezing rain. Stay Tuned.
