Georgia is diving headfirst into summer with a classic southern mix: sticky, humid air, afternoon thunderstorm pop-ups, and a whopping heat surge lined up for the weekend.

Afternoons this week will feel like a sauna—temperatures in the mid‑80s already feel closer to 90°F thanks to heavy dew points. Afternoon showers and storms are normal, but we’ll see more dynamic weather early in the week. Tuesday and Wednesday are tagged First Alert Weather Days for scattered storms that could include gusty winds, heavy rain, and even hail in isolated areas across north Georgia.

Come Thursday, the skies calm—but the heat ramps up. Hotter temps are sending heat index values into the 98–104°F danger zone, making outdoor plans feel more like a challenge than leisure. Friday through Sunday is shaping up as Georgia’s first real heat wave of the season, with triple-digit heat indices expected—time to strategically plan your outside time.

By early next week, while storms may return, temperatures will drop just enough for a welcome break—but summer’s still on full volume.
