A large cover of high pressure is sitting above metro Atlanta, and it should make things seem warmer than the forecast high Saturday.

“Factor in the humidity, it’s going to feel like triple-digit heat around metro Atlanta,” Channel 2 Action News meteorologist Brian Monahan said.

The expected high Saturday is 93, 1 degree below the average for this date.

It should seem even hotter in southside areas. A heat index of 105 to 108 degrees is expected from noon to 6 p.m. in and south of Upson County, according to Channel 2.

Rain? There’s a 30 percent chance Saturday, creeping up to 40 percent Sunday. That should cool things off a bit Sunday, with the high forecast at 91.

About 2:30 p.m., temps were at 89 in Atlanta, 91 in Griffin and 82 in Blairsville.

Showers possible for parts of Georgia Saturday
