Masters 2023: The Augusta weather forecast looks ominous for Masters weekend
AUGUSTA, Ga. — Ah sure, fretting concerning the Augusta climate forecast. A Masters custom not like some other. Sadly, it looks like these fears could also be warranted.
Early studies for this week’s event don’t look good. Not good in any respect. In accordance with the Climate Channel, thunderstorms are anticipated within the Augusta space on Thursday, with Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday that includes loads of rain.
By the way in which, do you know that climate proportion doesn’t point out the possibility of rain, however how a lot of the realm will get rain? So it’s not a 61 p.c likelihood of rain Saturday, however that—based on meteorologists—there’s a one hundred pc likelihood that 61 p.c of the Augusta space will get rain. And if you happen to already know this, nicely, forgive me, they by no means taught this in Ohio.
Whereas the forecast seems ominous, it’s value noting we undergo this train almost yearly, and someway the golf gods at all times give us a break on the final second. Plus, for all we all know, the membership might erect a dome earlier than the weekend.
For these questioning, there have been 5 instances in Masters historical past the place the event completed on Monday. The final time it occurred was in 1983.

Second Augusta shooting in less than 3 weeks leaves 1 dead
AUGUSTA, Ga. (WRDW/WAGT) – Another shooting downtown left one person dead early Friday morning, 20 days after the shooting that shocked the community, according to the Richmond County Coroner’s Office.
The Richmond County Sheriff’s Office says deputies responded to the 1500 block of 15th Street about an injured person at 7:43 a.m.
Deputies say when they arrived they found a man in the parking lot of a business and had been shot at least one time, Richmond County Coroner Mark Bowen confirms.
DOWNTOWN SHOOTING: TEAM COVERAGE
The man was pronounced dead on the scene at 8 a.m., according to Bowen, and an autopsy has been scheduled.
No further information is available at this time, and his identity will be released once the next of kin has been notified, Bowen says.
The investigation is in its early stages and there is no further information at this time, according to the sheriff’s office.
Just two days ago, downtown business owners were celebrating their business boom since the shooting on 10th Street.
Just a few weeks after downtown was shattered by the shooting, the garden city is rebounding with Juneteenth and Pride — all of which are having a positive impact on business.
And with temperatures shooting up, there’s been a concern business would wilt in the hot weather.
“Of course, the weather is not helping with it being so incredibly hot,” said Hope Trujillo, manager at Pineapple Ink.
On Tuesday, June 11, two suspects who are also brothers, were arrested in connection with the shooting.
Amazing Lee Blessed Brigham, 19, was arrested Tuesday after being released from the hospital, where he’d been since shortly after.
