TUESDAY’S WEATHER | ‘You will need to bundle up’

Tuesday’s temperatures will stay on the cool side in metro Atlanta.

The morning air is about 10 to 15 degrees cooler than yesterday, so “you will need to bundle up” if you’re headed back to work for the first time in 2024, Channel 2 Action News meteorologist Eboni Deon said.

“Definitely make sure that you have a warm coat to put on, especially if you take public transportation, you have to stand outside, it is not going to go all that great,” she said. “We have just a little bit of wind making it feel even colder.”

It won’t be as breezy as we head into the afternoon, and lots of sunshine is in store throughout the day. Temperatures today and for the rest of the week won’t get much higher than the low 50s, though. That’s just a bit cooler than the average high of 54 degrees for this time of year.

Some clouds will start to filter in by this evening, setting us up for some showers that are expected tomorrow.

It’ll be mainly dry for the first half of the day Wednesday. Showers will arrive by noon.

“Not everyone will see rain, but we are going to be tracking some scattered rain showers moving in, and the air could be cold enough and we might even see a little bit of a (wintry) mix moving through with some of this rain,” Deon said.

Most of the metro will see only rain, she said. But with a projected high of just 48 degrees, some areas could see a light mix of rain and snow. The best chance to see that will be in the North Georgia mountains, but little to no accumulation is expected.

Any showers will dissipate by the evening, and the rest of the week should stay cool and dry. It’ll be sunny on Thursday, and Friday will bring more clouds to the sky.

We’ll see more rain on Saturday, but Sunday should stay dry.
