Georgia wakes to a soft, mild February morning, with low clouds drifting quietly over metro Atlanta. The air feels calm now, but change is already lining up.
Early temperatures sit near 48 degrees, noticeably warmer than recent mornings. Skies stay mostly cloudy at first, but sunshine quickly takes over. By afternoon, highs climb into the mid-60s, delivering a rare winter warm-up that feels more like March than February.
Traffic flows smoothly early, though drivers may notice damp pavement lingering in shaded areas. No major hazards are expected today, but visibility improves quickly as clouds thin. By evening, conditions remain quiet, with temperatures settling into the upper 40s.
The warmth builds further Tuesday, when highs surge into the low 70s. Southwest winds increase slightly, adding a springlike feel across Peachtree City and Atlanta. Outdoor plans benefit early, but weather models now track the next system approaching late Tuesday night.
Showers develop after midnight and grow more widespread by Wednesday. Rain chances reach 50 percent, with periods of steady rain possible through the day. Roads along I-85, I-75, and GA-54 may turn slick during peak travel times. Plan extra braking distance and slower commutes if showers intensify.
Temperatures cool modestly midweek, holding in the mid-60s, still above normal for February. Rain tapers Wednesday night, though spotty showers may linger.
By Thursday, drier air returns. Sunshine reappears, and highs remain near 64 degrees, keeping the overall pattern mild.
Looking ahead to the 6–10 day trend, above-normal temperatures continue across much of the Southeast. While rain chances return late week, signs of sustained cold remain absent. For now, winter stays muted, and springlike warmth remains the dominant theme.
