(Today through Friday) - Light rain this morning will be pushed through the CWA out ahead of a cold front. - Gusty winds behind the front may warrant the need for a wind advisory, especially in the higher elevations of NE Georgia. - Freezing temperatures on the backside have prompted a Frost advisory tomorrow, but the advisory may need to be expanded. A cold front moving through Alabama is brining some light rain and gusty winds to the SE. As a result a wind advisory may be needed for the higher elevations of northern GA.
