MONDAY’S WEATHER-TRAFFIC: Foggy morning, then warm and cloudy

If Santa brought you a new winter coat for Christmas, it can stay in the closet Monday. Temperatures will reach into the 70s, according to the forecast from Channel 2 Action News meteorologist Eboni Deon.

“It’ll be a good day to be outside,” she said. “Temperature-wise, it’s going to feel very much like spring.”

That’ll be the case again Tuesday. Rain rolls in by Wednesday.

There’s a dense fog advisory for much of the metro Monday morning. That’ll be followed by a cloudy, humid afternoon.

Fog could be a factor in this early morning traffic tie-up in Cherokee County:

It’s unclear what caused this wreck, but take care in Marietta:
