Atlanta, GA – Dark clouds stretch across the Georgia skyline this early Sunday morning, hinting at a stormy pattern building across the state. The air feels damp and mild, a sure sign that change is on the way.
The National Weather Service in Peachtree City has issued a Hazardous Weather Outlook for north and central Georgia. Numerous showers and isolated thunderstorms are expected through late today and Monday, with a few storms capable of producing gusty winds and locally heavy rainfall. While widespread severe weather isn’t expected, travel delays and ponding on roads could develop by Monday morning’s commute.
Today brings mostly cloudy skies and a 30% chance of showers by afternoon, increasing sharply to 90% by tonight. Temperatures reach the lower 60s before dipping into the upper 40s as rain intensifies.
Monday will be the wettest day of the week — steady rain, gusts up to 25 mph, and isolated rumbles of thunder across Atlanta and the I-75 corridor. By Tuesday, clouds linger but rainfall eases, and by Wednesday afternoon, gradual clearing returns.
The good news? Halloween Friday looks comfortable and dry, with mild highs near 60°F and light winds — a welcome break for trick-or-treaters after the soggy start.
To be fair, this is classic late-October Georgia weather — gray skies, steady rain, and a hint of chill ahead. Expect a chilly November to follow.
