Atlanta residents can expect mostly sunny weather in the coming days. With forecasts projecting a consistent climb in temperatures through the next several days, with today's comfortable high of 84 degrees, as reported by the National Weather Service.

There's a slight chance to eventually see some showers, with a 20 percent probability expected to begin to appear after 1 a.m. tonight. While the unfolding week promises a dearth of rainfall, it isn't set to be entirely dry. There's a similar 20 percent chance for showers tomorrow, "a slight chance of showers between noon and 2pm, then a slight chance of showers and thunderstorms after 2pm." The east wind will continue to blow gently, potentially gusting up to 15 mph.

Residents may look forward to the upcoming weekend as no less sunny than their weekdays. With skies that are going to remain clear, Friday night plans can proceed without the worry of weather woes. The low is expected to linger around a comfortable 64 degrees. The rising arc of the mercury will reach its zenith early next week, with the forecast predicting a potentially sweltering high of 94 degrees by Monday, creeping even higher to 95 by Tuesday.

Evenings promise to bring slight reprieve from the heat with temperatures poised to subtly dip. This pattern begins tonight, featuring "mostly cloudy" skies with the thermometer marked at a reasonable 67 degrees, and continues across the week with lows gently rising to 71 degrees by Monday night. Those in Atlanta can bask under "mostly clear" night skies, cherishing the cooler air before day returns to quickly remind them of summer's lingering presence.
