Atlanta, Georgia – Georgia is set to see a clear warming trend during the first full week of February, as a broader Southeast warm-up pushes daytime temperatures well above late January levels and closer to what many expect as winter begins to wind down.
According to the National Weather Service and NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center, temperatures from Tuesday through the following Monday are favored to run near or above normal across much of Georgia. In north and central Georgia, including Atlanta, Marietta, and Athens, afternoon highs are expected to climb into the upper 50s and low 60s at times. Overnight lows should remain mainly in the 30s and 40s, limiting the risk of widespread frost outside of colder valleys.
South Georgia, including Macon, Valdosta, and Albany, may see even warmer afternoons, with highs occasionally reaching the mid-60s. While cooler mornings will persist, the pattern does not show signs of any significant cold air intrusions during this stretch.
Rain chances appear limited through the period, helping keep travel conditions smooth along major corridors such as I-75, I-85, and I-20. Dry conditions may also support outdoor activities, though cooler temperatures will still be felt after sunset.
Residents may notice a more springlike feel during the afternoons, but seasonal caution is still advised during chilly mornings. While winter is not over, this stretch marks one of the mildest periods so far this year. Additional updates may be issued if the pattern shifts later in the week.
