2026 Masters weather forecast shows nearly perfect conditions all week at Augusta National

The 12th hole at Augusta National


The 2026 Masters weather forecast looks to little chance of rain falling at Augusta National Golf Club. It looks like a perfect week ahead.

The Par-3 Contest on Wednesday should be played under perfect weather conditions, with sunny skies and temperatures around 70 degrees Fahrenheit.

Thursday's first day of tournament action see partly cloudy conditions, though the temperatures will be in the mid-70s and the cloud cover will not be accompanied with signficant winds or much chance for rain.

After a nearly perfect Friday with temperatures just short of 80 degrees, the weekend will basically be two carbon-copy days of sunny weather and temperatures in the mid-80s. The wind will shift directions between the third and fourth rounds, though that wind will be fairly minor.

The club's Sub-Air systems will help vacuum any remaining moisture from underneath the putting surfaces. With these weather conditions in the forecast, the club should be able to set up the golf course for the scores they want to produce.

If, for whatever unknown reason, the weather and timing of the week is thrown off such that the tournament would need to finish on Monday (and Augusta National will do everything in their power to avoid that), the Monday weather forecast is great.
