BRAVING THE COLD--January 8, 2013 Atlanta: Mimi Smith bore the chilly temperatures waiting for a bus in the 1700 block of Peachtree Street as the mercury was below freezing in parts of metro Atlanta Tuesday morning, Jan. 8, 2013 but a big warm-up later in the week will push afternoon reading into the 70s by the weekend. Lows early Tuesday included 30 degrees in Peachtree City, 36 in Alpharetta and 38 at Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport. Channel 2 Action News meteorologist Karen Minton said there’s a 40 percent chance of rain Wednesday through Friday before dropping back to 20 percent on Saturday. Minton is predicting highs in the upper 50s Wednesday, mid-60s Thursday, upper 60s Friday and low 70s Saturday. Lows will be in the 50s. Normal high for the second week of January is 52, the normal low 34. JOHN SPINK / JSPINK@AJC.COM
