Atlanta weather | A rainy Monday is on tap
Get ready for a sloshy commute on Monday.
More than an inch of rain fell across metro Atlanta Sunday, with another half and inch possible tonight through Monday, according to Channel 2 Action News meteorologist Brad Nitz.
"Showers will be more scattered on Monday, but won’t clear out until Tuesday," he said. "Later in the week we’ll see much more sunshine and highs will be back near 80 beginning Tuesday. "
Rain, heavy at times, drenched metro Atlanta throughout most of Sunday. The high was in mid 70s. Overnight lows are expected to be in the low 60s.
Nitz expects the rain to taper off early Monday. "We keep the mid 70s on Monday, but we'll see the rain taper off by late in the day," he said.
He expects partly cloudy skies and a "drying out" toward Tuesday and Wednesday. By Thursday, the highs will be in the low 80s.
