Rain marching through the Southeast this morning, I anticipate the rain arriving in Metro Atlanta around 11am-1pm today. It’ll be around during the afternoon commute — drive carefully! #ATLwx #GAWx pic.twitter.com/hl2OSD4XH3

Rain showers are expected to move through North Georgia between 11am through 9pm Monday, and the Metro Atlanta area could receive as much as 0.5″ to 1″ of rainfall through the evening hours.
More rain is expected Wednesday, Friday and Saturday as more systems sweep through the Southeast. As much as 1-2″ of total rainfall is possible throughout Metro Atlanta through Saturday evening..
Cold Front Brings Chilly Air Back to Metro Atlanta
The cold front moving through the Southeast will send temperatures tumbling early this week! Monday afternoon’s high temperatures will stay in the mid-60s, but once the rain moves through, a quick drop to the upper 30s is expected for Tuesday Morning.
You know why it's called a Cold Front? 🤔 Because cold air surges behind the front! Get set for a 10-15 degree temperature drop between today and Tuesday! #ATLwx #GAwx #ALwx #ValleyWx pic.twitter.com/CcjMuF9g1o

Afternoon highs will struggle to climb out of the mid 50s Tuesday afternoon, and Wednesday will feature afternoon highs in the upper 50s as more rain moves in from the south.
A gradual warm up to the upper 60s and mid 70s is on the way for the end of the week before another cold front arrives on Saturday.
