Some metro Atlantans are waking up to light scattered showers Wednesday.
While the radar may show plenty of rain covering the area this morning, most of it is drying up before it reaches the ground, Channel 2 Action News meteorologist Brian Monahan said.
“Most of it, where it is falling, is very much on the light side this morning — just enough to wet the pavement in a few spots, especially south of I-20,” he said.
Gradually, a few showers will work their way further north, but they’ll mostly stay to the south of the city. Those on the north side may not see any rain at all, Monahan said, but “even where (rain) doesn’t fall very much today, it’s gonna be cool and breezy.”
Temperatures are starting off in the 50s, and it won’t get much warmer than that, “so definitely more of an indoor plan kind of day,” he said.
Things dry out and warm up a bit on Thursday, but the clouds are sticking around. Friday will bring another round of rain as a cold front makes its way across North Georgia.
“That front will pass by Friday night into Saturday morning, and then behind it, it sets us up for a really nice weekend with plenty of sunshine for you on Saturday afternoon and certainly on Sunday — set up for what should be a mostly sunny Sunday,” Monahan said.
