ATLANTA, Ga. – The city wakes under calm skies and crisp air this morning, but a touch of warmth is already returning. After a few brisk mornings earlier this week, Atlanta is heading into one of its most pleasant November weekends — bright sunshine, light breezes, and temperatures climbing well into the 70s.
According to the National Weather Service in Peachtree City, Friday will be mild and sunny, with highs near 71°F under a calm northwest wind. The weekend looks even warmer, reaching the mid-70s both Saturday and Sunday. Lows will remain comfortably in the upper 40s to mid-50s, allowing for perfect evenings for outdoor dining, football tailgates, or early holiday decorating.
Across north and central Georgia, the weather pattern stays steady through Sunday thanks to high pressure parked over the Southeast. Dry air will keep humidity low, making travel along I-75, I-85, and I-20 smooth and visibility excellent. By early next week, a weak front will slip through the region, nudging temperatures down slightly while keeping conditions mostly dry.
For those planning early Thanksgiving travel, this stretch provides ideal road and flight conditions, free from rain or wind delays. However, models hint at a gradual pattern change toward cooler, wetter weather later next week — possibly the region’s first “November chill” before the holiday.
After a cool start to the month, Georgia’s weather is closing the week in near-perfect balance — warm afternoons, crisp nights, and a brief reminder of late-fall calm before winter edges closer.
