Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 6hWhile plenty of uncertainty remains on what ultimately develops in the Gulf, interests along the northern Gulf Coast should watch this closely. For us? Tropical moisture likely has a big impact on our weekend forecast regardless of what this system becomes. 030
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Good Monday morning! As the weekend rain moves out, clouds and morning fog linger. Should see some breaks in the clouds later today. We’ll be keeping an eye on what is brewing in the Gulf this week. Regardless of development, tropical moisture is likely to impact our weekend. 040
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 02/10/2026TGIF! A soggy weekend is ahead. Saturday is not a total washout - with scattered showers and storms most likely in the afternoon. But Sunday is a washout - with periods of steady rain throughout the day. Showers can linger into Monday. We’ll be monitoring a flash flood risk as a result! 020
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 01/10/2026October starts with a summer-like feel... Some areas of fog can form rapidly and briefly early today. Otherwise, we're talking about hotter temperatures, higher mugginess, and lots of sunshine. @fox5atlanta.bsky.social 031
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Good Wednesday morning! It gets a little hotter today, but still not humid. Tomorrow is more humid with a summer-like feel to kick off October - with patchy AM fog. From there, we’re keeping an eye on a flood/flash flood risk this weekend. Saturday morning may be the best “lull” in the rain 011
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 28/09/2026The feel of fall fades later this week… @fox5atlanta.bsky.social 030
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Cruising into a beautiful Friday afternoon and a gorgeous weekend! Fall fans...this is your time. @fox5atlanta.bsky.social 040
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Good Thursday morning! Cooler air is here - with more to come (it wasn't that long ago that our LOWS were in the 70s instead of our HIGHS)! Expect clouds & a few patches of drizzle/light rain, mainly in the AM. But clouds should gradually break for the afternoon. Crisp, cool 50s follow tonight. 051
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 15/09/2026Fall allergy season... The pollen count is the highest it has been since May 1st! @fox5atlanta.bsky.social 120
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 14/09/2026Near record heat today! The Atlanta forecast is one degree shy of a record under sunny skies this afternoon. Hot afternoons are here to stay, but the humidity will drop nicely by the end of the week and help break the record streak of warm low temperatures for Atlanta. @fox5atlanta.bsky.social 030
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 11/09/2026TGIF! Our quiet morning will be followed by a stormy afternoon. Scattered storms will dominate north Georgia through the afternoon & evening with locally heavy rain & some stronger wind gusts. Storm chances increase thru Saturday. Despite a high likelihood of rain, there will be plenty of breaks. 000
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 11/09/2026While some areas have had cooler 60s for low temperatures recently, Atlanta has smashed a record for very warm overnights/mornings. And this streak will keep going strong into next week! @fox5atlanta.bsky.social 030
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 10/09/2026An afternoon storm for some, heat and humidity for all! @fox5atlanta.bsky.social 020
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 09/09/2026Good Wednesday morning! Temperatures are creeping back up, but rain chances will hold back until tomorrow. Our wettest day is Saturday - as scattered storms increase across north Georgia. Join me on Good Day Atlanta for the outlook into next week! 051
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 08/09/2026🏆Today/tonight is my pick of the week🏆 It will be mostly sunny and seasonably warm with a nice breeze. Check out tonight - many spots in the 60s, maybe even a few 50s briefly in the north Georgia mountains! @fox5atlanta.bsky.social 040
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 07/09/2026A change in the air for this #LaborDay! Not an ideal holiday forecast - with passing showers/thundershowers in the forecast today. But we do finally get a break from the extreme heat. @fox5atlanta.bsky.social 030
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 07/09/2026🌀A new record?🌀 A strong El Niño =to less tropical activity in the Atlantic & more in the Pacific. We’ve had 5 named storms, but no hurricanes yet. If we make it to the end of the week without a hurricane, that’ll be a new record for the latest hurricane formation. @fox5atlanta.bsky.social 040
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 06/09/2026SUNDAY STORMS We’ll have another round of strong and severe storms this afternoon and evening. While storms will be scattered in such a way that not everyone will get one, 60 mph winds and hail can accompany several storms - especially after 1pm until about 10pm. 030
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 03/09/2026Another September scorcher! Outside of a stray afternoon shower/storm, it is a mostly sunny day with a fast warmup. Highs will get close to records again (record is 98 from 1925) and the heat index returns to the triple digits. @fox5atlanta.bsky.social 050
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 02/09/2026Good Wednesday morning! We have another day of near record temperatures, heat index values 100+, and only a few afternoon storms. Not much change for the rest of this week! @fox5atlanta.bsky.social 050
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Sizzling start to September! Near record highs and muggy air will leave us with heat index values near and over 100 for the next several afternoons. Can't rule out a rogue afternoon storm today, but they'll be more scattered by the Labor Day weekend. 051
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Tropical Storm Edouard is forecast to strengthen before landfall along the TX/LA coast later today. 3"-6" of rain with significantly higher localized amounts are expected along its path - along with storm surge varying from 1-5 feet. The storm will weaken rapidly after landfall. 061
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 21/08/2026TGIF! As the overnight/early morning storms wind down, we’ll head into a partly cloudy, hot, and humid afternoon with scattered storms returning. Some storms could be severe due to strong winds. But there is a pleasant change for the weekend, including a nice drop in humidity, esp Sunday! 040
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 20/08/2026AFTERNOON HEAT, EVENING STORMS Most of our Thursday is simply dry and hot. But our attention turns to gusty storms arriving from the north by this evening. There is a level 1 risk (out of 5) for strong, potentially damaging winds with a few storms - especially between 9pm-3am. 040
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 19/08/2026Good Wednesday morning! Today is hot, dry, & not quite as oppressively humid as recent days. There is also a Code Orange Air Quality Alert. Air quality will be unhealthy (due to ozone) for children & people with heart/lung issues. Ozone levels are highest late afternoon/early evening. 050
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 18/08/2026We’ll take the little wins where we cane get them. After strong storms overnight, thanks to a cold front, today will be dry, still quite hot, but gradually becoming less humid. Heat index a little below 100 for many areas. @fox5atlanta.bsky.social 140
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 17/08/2026No relief from the heat today! High temperatures will rise close to 100 degrees, with the humidity making it feel even hotter. Most stay dry today/tonight. But outside of a stray pop-up storm this afternoon, stronger storms can drift into far north Ga this evening with potentially damaging winds. 030
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 14/08/2026Dangerous heat is the main concern for several days! If outdoors: -stay hydrated -wear loose-fitting, light-colored clothing -don't overexert yourself -watch for the signs of heat exhaustion or heat stroke Storms may be few & far between, but they can bring heavy rain, lightning, & strong winds 041
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 13/08/2026Not many afternoon storms, but plenty of heat! The heat and humidity combination will become more dangerous in north Georgia over the weekend and early next week. Heat indices over 105 degrees will become more common day-by-day. Please stay safe in this extended heat wave! 020
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 11/08/2026The dog days of summer aren't letting up! We'll have another steamy day with isolated to scattered afternoon downpours. It'll manage to get even hotter by the end of the week! @fox5atlanta.bsky.social 020
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 10/08/2026Good Monday morning! A new week, but more of the same heat, humidity, and scattered afternoon storms for now. By the end of the week, the weather pattern will be drier, but hotter! 040
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 07/08/2026The drought has been declared over! About time, right? The afternoon summer storms will keep coming for now. @fox5atlanta.bsky.social 020
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 05/08/2026A "RINSE AND REPEAT" FORECAST ☔️ With a mid-level low still spinning over north Georgia, locally heavy rain will pinwheel around that low this afternoon, much like yesterday. The result will be high rainfall totals (potentially 2"+ in a couple of spots) and nothing at all in others. 020
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 04/08/2026Good Tuesday morning! Weather conditions are quiet at the bus stop this morning - outside of some thick fog in a few spots. But be prepared for storms to affect the afternoon. They should be fairly widespread from noon-sunset, bringing heavy rain and lightning. 040
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 03/08/2026Good Monday morning! It is back to school for many - and a fairly typical August day is in store. It will be seasonably hot, moderately muggy, and generally sunny - outside of some areas of morning fog and isolated afternoon storms (mainly between noon and sunset). 050
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 02/08/2026A Flash Flood Warning has been issued for Jackson, Banks Counties until 8/02 10:15PM. 2”-3” of rain has fallen in this area. Another 1”-3” possible. Do not attempt to drive through flooded roads! @fox5atlanta.bsky.social 010
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 01/08/2026Keep an eye on the sky - and your FOX 5 Storm Team app - today! Locally heavy rain will sweep through with scattered storms. In addition to the risk of localized flask flooding and frequent lightning, some storms this afternoon could produce damaging winds up to 60 mph. 030
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 31/07/2026TGIF! Enjoy the lower humidity today! Scattered storms impact your weekend forecast. Make sure you stay alert for any locally heavy rain, lightning, and possible severe storms (especially Saturday afternoon). 040
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 30/07/2026Good Thursday morning! While it is still a bit muggy for some areas this morning, the humidity will continue to drop over the next 24 hours. The result today is sunny skies and a hot, but not too humid afternoon. Should feel even better by Friday morning! @fox5atlanta.bsky.social 040
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 29/07/2026The cold front that triggered severe weather last night now settles to our south. As drier air takes over, the humidity will start dropping noticeably over the next 24 hours! It will still be a hot afternoon, but it will feel more refreshing for Thursday morning. 040
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 29/07/2026A rough night of severe storms left lots of damage behind and areas of flooding. Check out these Doppler estimated rainfall totals from Gilmer and Pickens counties. The resulting Flash Flood Warning in those areas has thankfully expired. A quieter day is ahead! 030
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 29/07/2026TORNADO WARNING for Rabun county until 8:45pm. Severe storms rolling into northeast Georgia from western NC now prompting a TORNADO WARNING for portions of Rabun county until 8:45pm. Take shelter now! Get the latest on @fox5atlanta.bsky.social and #FOXLocal 041
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 28/07/2026Heat Advisory today, strong storms possible for a few this evening! @fox5atlanta.bsky.social 020
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 24/07/2026FLOOD WATCH expanded southward to include Atlanta through midnight tonight. Some areas have already picked up a couple of inches of rain. Locally heavy downpours can bring some areas 1"-3" more. @fox5atlanta.bsky.social 020
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 23/07/2026Good Thursday morning! A front fueled with tropical moisture brings occasionally heavy rain for the next couple of days. Storms are widely scattered today with cooler high temperatures over far north Ga. Storms are more numerous for Friday with localized flash flooding possible. 020
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 22/07/2026While Tropical Storm Bertha does not directly impact our weather, our chance of scattered rain/storms increases each day for the rest of the week. But this also means it won’t be quite as hot! @fox5atlanta.bsky.social 040
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 22/07/2026WEDNESDAY 5AM TROPICAL STORM BERTHA UPDATE: Still very much a lopsided storm that is keeping most of the rain offshore, Bertha is still bringing tropical storm force winds, 1-4 ft of coastal storm surge, and generally 1"-4" of rain along its path. 093
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Another seasonably hot and humid day with only a couple afternoon storms expected. As rain chances increase for us tomorrow, thanks to an approaching cold front, we have a higher risk of excessive rain than coastal areas in the path of Tropical Storm Bertha! @fox5atlanta.bsky.social 030
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 20/07/2026Good Monday morning! Most stay dry this afternoon, but none of us avoid the heat and humidity! @fox5atlanta.bsky.social 050
Joanne Feldman @joannefeldmanfox5.bsky.social · 20/07/2026MONDAY 5AM UPDATE; Tropical Depression Two isn't quite to tropical storm strength yet, but is forecast to reach that later today. The slow drift to the west means no direct impact on north Georgia's weather. Coastal storm surge of 1-3 feet, tropical storm winds, several inches of rain expected 020
