ATLANTA, GA – Warm, breezy fall weather continues across north Georgia as the new week begins, offering a perfect window for outdoor plans before a few midweek showers arrive. Temperatures will stay unseasonably mild, with highs near 80°F through Tuesday, ideal for fall festivals, decorating, or a visit to local pumpkin patches.
According to the National Weather Service in Peachtree City, dry air and steady east winds will dominate much of Monday and Tuesday, with gusts near 20 mph. Clouds begin to thicken Tuesday night as a weak cold front approaches from the west, bringing a 30% chance of showers and isolated thunderstorms into Wednesday. Rain chances will taper by Thursday, followed by a refreshing drop in humidity by Friday.
Drivers along I-75 and I-285 should remain alert for gusty crosswinds Monday and Tuesday, especially during afternoon commutes. While widespread severe weather is not expected, brief downpours and lightning may develop in parts of Fulton, DeKalb, and Cobb Counties by midweek.
Homeowners should secure lightweight decorations and check gutters ahead of the late-week rain chance. Cooler, comfortable air will follow into the weekend—excellent for early Halloween setups and leaf-viewing trips in North Georgia parks.
