Martin Luther King Jr. Day started off with a chilly morning, but temperatures will rise throughout the day, WSB meteorologist Karen Minton said.
“It’s going to warm a little bit,” Minton said. “We’re still going to be below average, and we will have plenty of sunshine.”

Later this week, an Arctic front will pass through the region creating a chance for light snow on Tuesday. Minton predicted up to 1 inch in northern counties and as much as a quarter-inch in Atlanta Metro.
Temperatures should drop into the teens overnight late Tuesday, creating a frigid Wednesday morning. By Friday, another warming is forecast for the weekend.
An Arctic front brings cold air with light snow to Georgia. Leaving work in the evening you'll see snow flurries or light snow in metro Atlanta. In Atlanta 1/4" or less possible. Behind the front temperatures will feel like single digits to teens. pic.twitter.com/i2qSVxgaKz
