If you’ve been enjoying the slightly cooler weather, time to soak it up while you can. Georgia’s dry spell isn’t going anywhere, and temperatures are climbing back into the 90s by early next week.

What’s Coming

Starting today, expect sunny skies with highs between 80-88°F. But that’s just the beginning of a steady warm-up as summer fights fall for control.

The weekend brings more of the same sunshine, with Saturday hitting 82-90°F and Sunday pushing 83-91°F. By Monday and Tuesday, we’re looking at highs between 84-94°F — basically back to peak summer vibes.

The Details That Matter

Here’s what the National Weather Service Atlanta is tracking:

  • Zero chance of rain through next Wednesday
  • Low humidity keeping things comfortable despite the heat
  • Gradual temperature climb each day through early next week
  • Nighttime lows staying pleasant in the 50s and 60s

Why This Matters

This extended dry pattern means a few things for your week ahead. If you’re planning outdoor activities, mornings and evenings will still feel great, but midday heat is coming back strong.

For anyone dealing with allergies or respiratory issues, the low humidity is actually good news — it’s the sticky, muggy days that tend to feel worse.

And if you’ve been putting off any outdoor projects thinking cooler weather was here to stay, you might want to tackle them this weekend before the real heat returns.
