Metro Atlanta will be in the low 50s all day Sunday with plenty of cloud coverage and rain.
Showers moving in overnight will remain until the evening, setting up the metro for soggy conditions. At times, the rain will weaken into a drizzle before intensifying again, but you certainly won’t want to walk around without a rain jacket or umbrella.
“It’s going to be wet. The rain that moves in will become widespread and heavy at times and really stick around throughout much of the day. So, it’s going to be a wet, cool winter weekend,” Channel 2 Action News meteorologist Eboni Deon said.
Temperatures will fall within the average range for this time of year. A high of 55 degrees and a low of 50 are expected. The cooler temperatures Sunday are partly due to so much cloud cover from Saturday that doesn’t move out.
“Thanks to the clouds (and) the damp conditions, it will be cooler than normal, ... but then again fairly seasonal,” Deon said.
The week will then take a drier turn and some sunshine is even expected to show through Monday, which will be a slightly warmer day. A small chance of rain Tuesday could bring some isolated showers, but the rain is expected to return by Wednesday.
