Spring weather in Georgia is bringing significant changes this weekend, with heavy rain and cooler temperatures expected. The worst of the weather will hit Sunday night, with widespread rainfall and possible thunderstorms. As temperatures dip into the 40s by Monday, residents in and around Atlanta, Peachtree City, and other neighboring areas should prepare for a stark shift in conditions.
Heavy Rain and Storms Expected Sunday Night
According to the National Weather Service, a cold front will bring widespread heavy rain to Georgia starting Sunday evening. The storms could produce localized flooding, especially in areas with poor drainage. The heaviest rain is expected between 8 PM and midnight, and conditions may worsen as gusty winds of up to 30 mph accompany the storms.
Cooler, Chilly Conditions for the Week Ahead
By Monday morning, temperatures will drop significantly, with lows in the mid-40s across the region. Monday’s high will only reach 64°F, providing a sharp contrast to the milder temperatures earlier in the weekend. Those heading out on the roads should also be mindful of slick conditions during the storm’s peak hours.
Looking further into the week, temperatures will gradually warm back up. Tuesday will bring clear skies with highs near 70°F, followed by partly cloudy weather through Thursday. While the rain will clear by Monday, ensure that you’re prepared for a chillier start to the week.
