Atlanta residents can expect a steady weather pattern this week, with sunny skies dominating the forecast, according to the National Weather Service. Today's conditions will remain sunny with a high near 42, and a shift to easterly winds at about 5 mph. As reported by the NWS, tonight will continue the clear trend with a low around 26 amid calm winds.
Looking ahead to Tuesday, skies will stay sunny, boasting a higher temperature around 54 degrees with calm winds that will take a westerly turn at around 5 mph; as the evening approaches, the partially cloudy night will usher in temperatures hovering near 32 degrees, but the calm winds will persist into Wednesday, it's partly sunny with an expected high near 58 and a southwest breeze gently rolling in at about 5 mph, then Wednesday night's forecast anticipates partly cloudy conditions with a low around 40.
Midweek shifts bring in a slight uncertainty, starting Thursday there's a 50 percent chance of showers after 1 pm, segueing into a possibility of thunderstorms before 1 am, though during the day the sun will still play its part providing intermittent cover amongst the clouds with a high near 63. The evening precipitation probability skyrockets to 80 percent, ushering in a low around 39, as detailed by the NWS.
However, the week seems to cycle back to clarity by Friday, with sunshine returning to push temperatures to a high near 53, while the nighttime forecast leans towards mostly clear skies, settling down to a cool 34 degrees, then as the weekend arrives, Atlanta expects another bout of sun-filled days with Saturday's temps reaching up to 59, yet there's a slight twist in the narrative as Saturday night brings about a 20 percent chance of showers, altering partly cloudy conditions with a low around 45, Sunday caps the week with a 30 percent shower probability still under partly sunny influence, and the barometer tops a high near 67.
