The TV news says it is going to be 19 in Georgia Friday morning.
Yahoo says it is going to be 19 Thursday.

I get the feeling the TV news talking about Friday morning and Yahoo
is showing the same information is Thursday night.

Here's Yahoo's Atlanta forecast:

If you'll scroll down, there's a "Detailed Local Forecast", which
reads ("Tonight" being Wednesday 21 January):

Tonight: Cloudy. Low 36F. Winds WNW at 5 to 10 mph.

Tomorrow: Partly to mostly cloudy. High near 40F. Winds NW at 15 to 25 mph.
Tomorrow night: Clear. Cold. Low 21F. Winds N at 10 to 15 mph.

Friday: A mainly sunny sky. High 42F. Winds ENE at 5 to 10 mph.

Saturday: Few showers. Highs in the mid 40s and lows in the mid 30s.

Sunday: Mix of sun and clouds. Highs in the upper 50s and lows in the
upper 30s.

So, yes, I believe that you're right. It's a sort of 6 in one hand,
half a dozen in the other whether you say "Friday morning temperature"
or "the Thursday overnight temperature".

But saying "Friday AM temperature" eliminates the possible confusion,
and I would see that as being a better way of wording things.

isn't looking good, either.
I am BOFH. Resistance is futile. Your network will be assimilated.

Thursday was no where near 20 and if it does make it down to 20 before
midnight then Friday's prediction will be wrong where is says low 30.
