ATLANTA, Ga. – The city wakes beneath a soft dawn glow, skyline brushed in gold as crisp air hangs over quiet streets. After several chilly mornings, north Georgia is shifting into a warmer, steadier pattern — a classic mid-November pause before the next seasonal turn.
According to the National Weather Service in Peachtree City, Thursday will bring full sunshine and light winds, with highs near 67°F across metro Atlanta. It’s the start of a warming trend that lasts through the weekend, perfect for morning jogs along the BeltLine or fall yardwork before holiday travel picks up next week. By Friday and Saturday, temperatures will climb into the lower 70s, with clear skies and calm nights ideal for outdoor events and early Christmas setup.
Despite the stretch of calm weather, forecasters note subtle signs of change on the horizon. A weak cold front could slide into the region early next week, dropping temperatures slightly and introducing a 30 percent chance of rain by Monday night into Tuesday. Winds will pick up from the northwest afterward, hinting at the first hints of a late-November cool-down that could bring morning lows back into the 40s.
For now, Atlanta enjoys several days of tranquil fall sunshine — the kind that masks the seasonal shift quietly building across the Southeast. While snow and ice are still weeks away for Georgia, models are hinting at colder air deepening to the north — an early “winter tease” worth watching as Thanksgiving week approaches.
