Georgia – A clear, crisp sky glows over Atlanta this morning as early light strikes rooftops and glints off dew-coated lawns. Calm air settles across quiet neighborhoods, and the city wakes to a gentle chill that fades as soon as the sun climbs higher. Travelers heading toward I-75, I-85, or the airport will find smooth, dry roads and excellent visibility as the weekend unfolds.
According to the National Weather Service Atlanta office, today brings full sunshine and a high near 74 degrees. Forecasters expect west winds of 5 to 10 mph with gusts near 15 mph by afternoon. Residents tackling early Thanksgiving shopping or yard cleanup can expect easy conditions through the day. The dry pattern also benefits travelers crossing metro Atlanta, where congestion often worsens under wet weather.
Sunday continues the warm and mostly sunny theme. According to meteorologists, highs reach the low 70s as west winds rise again, gusting near 20 mph at times. That breeze may push loose leaves across lanes in open areas, especially near the Perimeter. Still, it’s a favorable setup for weekend gatherings, outdoor sports, or early travel to visit family.
Monday brings another warm, steady day. According to NWS guidance, highs reach the upper 60s under bright sun with only a light northerly breeze. It’s a calm window before national weather patterns begin shifting midweek, especially across the Midwest and Northeast. While Atlanta avoids any Winter Tease for now, the broader setup hints at stronger cold fronts approaching closer to Thanksgiving.
Tuesday holds sunny skies and mid-70s warmth, perfect for local airport traffic and early road trips. After all, November often saves sharper swings for late month, and Atlanta’s quiet pattern offers a brief travel advantage before holiday momentum peaks.
