Atlanta residents can expect a warm week ahead with a splash of possible thunderstorms early next week, according to predictions from the National Weather Service. The temperature will hover in the mid-to-high 70s for the most part, offering an ideal climate for any outdoor activities.
The forecast, retrieved from the National Weather Service, indicates that today's weather will include increasing clouds, reaching a comfortable high near 75. The wind, coming from the west, might flex its muscles with gusts as high as 20 mph. As the sun sets, the skies will largely clear, gifting the city with a pleasant low around 53, accompanied by a gentle northwest breeze.
The sunny skies will not take leave of Atlanta this week, with Thursday bringing in a high near 79 and a serenade of light winds shifting from northeast to southeast. But the clouds will gather once the night takes over, with an expected low hovering around 59 and a shift in the wind's dance from the east. In a similar pattern, Friday offers a mix of sun and clouds and promises another warm day, with breezes from the southeast stirring up to 15 mph.
Looking ahead, the weekend keeps the sky mostly clouded, yet with highs persistently clinging near the 77-degree mark. Nighttime lows will echo each other, with thermometers stalling around 61 degrees. Yet amidst the consistency, Sunday breaks the monotony, offering plenty of sunshine and a climb to nearly 79 degrees. But the stars are anticipated to shine clearly that night as temperatures dip slightly to 60.
Continuing the streak, Monday shows its face with full sunlight, pushing the mercury to 83. As nightfall casts its cloak, there's a whisper of change with a 20 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms, though the skies will remain partly obscured by clouds, as the darkness traps a low of around 63 degrees. These nocturnal disturbances could carry over into Tuesday where the chance of rain and thunder increases, teetering at 30 percent. Still, the sun is expected to fight through, nurturing the day until temperatures reach a near sultry 84 degrees.
