Sunday night's partly cloudy skies will accompany Atlantans as they prepare for New Year's Eve festivities, with a low around 37 degrees and southwest winds persisting, gusts pacing up to 15 mph, reported by the National Weather Service.
New Year's Day promises to start 2024 on a bright note, with mostly sunny skies and a high of around 50 degrees. However, the weather may become a conversation starter as northwest winds could peak at 20 mph.
