As we roll into the weekend, Georgia residents can expect a steady climb in temperatures, ending a week that was practically paradise to go back to the usual summer swelter.
Today kicks off with sunny skies and highs in the mid-80s, perfect for enjoying the outdoors before things really start to heat up.
Saturday and Sunday will bring partly cloudy skies, with temperatures edging closer to the upper 80s. The weekend will give your air conditioner a light workout, but nothing too extreme—yet. By Sunday, expect highs creeping into the low 90s. Your garden might start looking a little thirsty, so be ready with the watering can.
As we head into next week, the heat is set to crank up a notch, with highs pushing into the mid to upper 90s. Monday through Wednesday will see a mix of warm and partly cloudy conditions, with the mercury flirting with the upper 90s. And yes, it’s going to stay dry—so don’t forget to hydrate both yourself and your plants.
By Thursday, the temperatures could hit the upper 90s, with a slight chance of isolated thunderstorms offering a brief respite from the heat. But don’t count on it—Mother Nature might just keep things sizzling.
