Georgia Forecast: Late September Rain Chances Could Bring Drought Relief
ATLANTA, Ga. — North and central Georgia may finally see relief from dry conditions, as forecasters are tracking a storm system that could bring widespread rainfall late next week.
Rain Possible by End of September
The National Weather Service in Peachtree City reports that several forecast models point to a higher probability of above-average rainfall between Sept. 26–30. While uncertainty remains in the system’s strength and timing, meteorologists say conditions are leaning “wetter than average” as September comes to a close.
Drought Conditions Worsening
The U.S. Drought Monitor recently reported worsening dryness across Georgia, with farmers facing stressed crops and low soil moisture. Limited rain this month has left parts of the state increasingly vulnerable. The potential for widespread showers offers hope, but forecasters caution that rainfall totals are still uncertain.
What Residents Should Expect
- Rain chances highest in north and central Georgia
- Possible relief for farmers and communities impacted by drought
- Forecast confidence expected to grow over the next few days
The National Weather Service urges residents to monitor updated forecasts and prepare for possible wet conditions late next week.
