Atlanta residents can expect a sunny start to the week with temperatures soaring near the 90s. Today, Atlantans are experiencing a high of 91 degrees and a moderate Northwest wind that could gust up to 20 mph. However, tonight may bring a slight chance of showers and thunderstorms with the chance of precipitation sitting at a modest 20 percent, according to the latest forecast from the National Weather Service.
As the new week unfolds, Monday promises a 30 percent chance of morning showers and thunderstorms, leading to a high around 84 degrees, with continued breezy conditions from the Northwest while as Monday night sets in, skies are expected to clear and temperatures will dip to a comfortable 62 degrees. Even though this respite from rain might be brief, Tuesday will shine brightly upon us, sunny with a climb up to 86 degrees continuing into a mostly clear night with temps hovering around the mid-60s.
The consistent pattern of warm and largely clear weather extends into Wednesday, assuring a high of 91 under mostly sunny skies which shifts only slightly come nightfall as it becomes partly cloudy with a low near 69. Atlanta residents should note that by Thursday, there may be a slight chance of showers before 2 pm, with the probability of precipitation rising to 30 percent for the afternoon, all set beneath mostly sunny skies and a high again nearing 92.
Looking ahead towards the end of the week, the chance of rain and thunderstorms holds steady at 30 percent on both Friday and Saturday days that nonetheless forecast mostly sunny conditions and highs steadfast at 91, per the National Weather Service. The potential for unsettled weather persists through both evenings with partly cloudy skies and lows around 72, offering Atlantans a reminder that balmy summer days can indeed coexist with the capricious dance of evening storms.
