Atlanta weather | Plan for a rainy weekend

Jan 21, 2012

It's going to be a wet weekend in metro Atlanta.

Channel 2 Action News chief meteorologist Glenn Burns said the chance of rain is 100 percent Saturday.

Burns said the high would be 67 degrees, "way out of line for this time of year." The average high is 52, he said.

There is a slight risk of severe thunderstorms, but it should be a decent late afternoon and a clear night after the front moves through, he said.

There is a 60 percent chance of rain Sunday, mostly after 6 p.m., he said.

Highs on Sunday and Monday are expected to be in the low to mid 60s, with lows in the 50s, he said.

Monday, the chance of rain is 60 percent.
