Sunday is shaping up to be a good day for Atlanta residents to rake up fall leaves.
A small chance of rain is expected late Sunday evening, but it’s expected to be dry throughout the day under mostly cloudy skies. It’ll also be warmer than Saturday with a low of 49 degrees and high of 63 degrees.
But cold, wet weather will return Monday with a low of 30 degrees and 40% chance of rain. Temperatures will continue to drop into the low 20s and 30s going into Tuesday before gradually warming back up toward Thanksgiving.
“Make time to get out and tackle some of that yardwork this weekend while we have the great weather around,” said Channel 2 Action News meteorologist Eboni Deon of Sunday’s forecast.
