There’s not much to say about the upcoming weekend, besides Athens’ potential to get its first major glimpse of summer. High pressure will park itself over the eastern U.S., which, combined with strong southerly flow, will usher in temperatures in the high 70s and low 80s for the whole weekend, with lows around 60. It’ll be a dry, sunny and beautiful last weekend in Athens before finals week!

A look at the weekend:

A system late this week will bring a mixed bag of precipitation moving into Friday. It will be icy late Thursday, as rain will fall during the night hours and into Friday morning. That will make for a wet start to the weekend, until high pressure builds in to follow, making for partly cloudy conditions. Highs throughout the weekend will remain in the low 40s, with lows in the upper teens to low 20s.

A system that has the potential to dump heavy rain and bring gusty winds will pass through Athens on Thursday and the town will see temperatures plummet to near freezing. High pressure will build following that system, allowing for a warm-up throughout the weekend. Highs on Friday and Saturday will be near 40 degrees, but a stark warm-up should come on Sunday with a high around 55 degrees. Lows will be in the 20s to near freezing.

A few weak Clipper systems will make their way through the region Friday and Saturday. Since highs will be near 50 on Friday, the precipitation should stay as rain throughout the day. A cold front associated with the system on Saturday will drop highs into the upper 30s and lows in the teens, so the precipitation with that system could switch to light snow into the evening hours. High pressure will build back in Sunday, with highs around freezing and lows into the teens.

Punxsutawney Phil predicted six more weeks of winter this morning, and the winter storm looming over Athens to end this week will prove him right, for now.

A clipper system will make its way into the Athens area late Thursday into Friday morning. It is unlikely that the system will bring more than an inch of snow to the region.

Following the active pattern we’ve seen this week, this weekend looks to be rather calm. High pressure will begin to build into the area Friday, which will clear out clouds and maintain dry conditions. That clearing will allow the heat at the surface to escape, causing temperatures to plummet down into the single digits Friday night. It is unlikely that the high temperatures will get above freezing all weekend, but the lows will gradually increase into the teens.

A rather strong winter storm is expected to impact the eastern United States this weekend, specifically late Sunday into Monday for southeast Ohio.
(01/13/22 3:52am)
The high pressure that has dominated the Athens area for most of the week will move out by Saturday night as a disturbance impacts the eastern U.S. The area will see highs in the 30s and lows in the teens for the whole weekend with mostly cloudy skies. There’s still a lot of uncertainty with that system, however. There is a decent chance for some snow during the weekend. Depending on several different moving parts of the storm, Athens could see anywhere from no snow to several inches throughout Sunday and into Monday. There will be more certainty about the storm in the coming days, expect updates as the storm's passage nears.

Rain will move out of the Athens area before Friday and make way for a partly cloudy day. A disturbance will develop over the Appalachian Mountains throughout the day Friday, which will not cause more precipitation but will cause conditions to be windy.

On Friday, the high-pressure system that has lingered over the Athens area all week will move out of the area and bring in a cold front. This will create a chance for showers late Friday night, with a slight chance for thunderstorms. The highs on Friday will be in the low 80s, with lows dropping below 60.

There is also an elevated chance of thunderstorms in the afternoon. However, the chance of showers and storms completely diminishes by 2 a.m. Saturday. Highs will be in the mid-70s and lows around 60.
