Partly cloudy and pleasant as pollen drips from trees like little green raindrops.

Rain chances will increase on Sunday and Monday, followed by weather perfect for slow-cooked corned beef and cabbage.
Frost will be possible across southeast Georgia on Tuesday and Wednesday morning, otherwise the late winter chill will be brief.
