2016 Masters weather forecast improves each day

There could be a few showers around Thursday morning but that will the exception rather than the rule as we go through the 2016 Masters Tournament.

A cold front moved through Georgia on Wednesday night and in its wake we could see a few lingering showers or thunderstorms in the morning but most if not all of the activity will be out by mid to late morning. Temperatures will be in the low 70s in the afternoon and winds will be on the breezy side. Winds will be out of the west between 10 to 20 mph and some gusts could be 25 to 30 mph.
